A Second Helping of Shock - An Astronomical Note at Breakfast Time
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Courtesy of the Estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/ILN/Mary Evans) In this humorous and historically intriguing print, we find ourselves in the midst of an unexpected astronomical event during a seemingly ordinary breakfast scene. The setting is a well-appointed Victorian dining room, where a plump, surprised gentleman sits at the table, his face a picture of disbelief as he drops his spoon in shock. His maid, equally astonished, leans over him, her hand on his shoulder, as if to offer comfort or support. The cause of their collective amazement is the sun, which has made an unexpected reappearance in the sky, casting an eerie glow over the room. This second eclipse of the sun, a rare and intriguing occurrence, has taken everyone by surprise. The family cat, perched on the windowsill, seems equally intrigued, its ears perked up and its gaze fixed on the celestial event. In the background, a baby in a high chair, oblivious to the commotion, continues to enjoy his meal. A toppled teapot and spilled milk add to the chaotic scene, while a large, ominous shadow cast by the eclipsing sun looms over the table. The print's cartoonish style, with its exaggerated features and humorous touches, adds to the lightheartedness of the scene, making it a delightful and intriguing glimpse into the past. This print, a charming and humorous reminder of the unexpected twists and turns of life, is a testament to the enduring fascination of astronomical phenomena and the human reaction to the wonders of the universe. It is a delightful and intriguing addition to any collection, and a reminder of the unexpected joys and challenges that life can bring.
