EDITORS COMMENTS
This hilarious and slightly absurd print titled "Bashful model and six policemen" captures a truly comical moment in Victorian Britain. In the image, we see a bashful model being restrained by not one, not two, but six policemen in order to take his photograph. The caption humorously notes that it takes an entire team of law enforcement officers to hold down this seemingly innocent suspect long enough for him to be identified.
The scene is set in the 1870s, with the backdrop of a classic tripod camera ready to capture this bizarre moment for posterity. The struggle between the police men and the bashful model adds an element of whimsy to what would otherwise be a routine arrest.
This historical snapshot offers a glimpse into the lighter side of law enforcement during this time period. It's hard not to chuckle at the sight of so many burly officers trying their best to keep this seemingly harmless individual under control.
Overall, this print is a delightful mix of history and humor, showcasing just how far some people will go to avoid having their picture taken - even if it means getting on the wrong side of six determined policemen!
