EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful engraving captures a humorous street scene from the 19th century, titled "Under Proper Control". The image showcases a young lady confidently strolling down the road with two mischievous dogs in tow. With an air of elegance and poise, she effortlessly manages to keep her pets under control amidst the bustling city backdrop. The artist's attention to detail is evident in this charming print. From the intricate engravings on buildings to the lively expressions of both dogs and passersby, every element adds depth and character to the scene. The humor lies in the contrast between the composed lady and her playful companions, who seem determined to explore their surroundings at any given opportunity. In addition to capturing a lighthearted moment, this artwork also offers glimpses into daily life during that era. It portrays children playing nearby as they watch Tommy - possibly a sibling or friend - being led by his older sister through town. This snapshot of Victorian society provides us with insights into social dynamics and family relationships of that time. "Under Proper Control" is part of Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection held in a private collection. As it falls out of copyright restrictions, Bridgeman Images has made this piece available for all art enthusiasts to enjoy today.
