EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "No Admittance" takes us back to the Victorian era, where artist Lucien Davis skillfully captures a scene filled with humor and whimsy. The print showcases a bustling city street, complete with an array of intriguing characters and unexpected elements. In this lively composition, we see a sign boldly declaring "No Admittance" which seems to have attracted quite the crowd. Birds perch on top of the sign, seemingly mocking its message while adding an element of playfulness to the scene. Dogs happily wag their tails as they stroll by, unfazed by any restrictions imposed upon them. Meanwhile, children can be seen peeking through railings or climbing over gates in an attempt to satisfy their curiosity about what lies beyond the forbidden area. A group of geese waddle along nonchalantly amidst all the commotion, further contributing to the charming chaos depicted in this artwork. The presence of umbrellas suggests that it might be raining lightly outside, adding another layer of atmosphere and visual interest. Through his masterful technique and attention to detail, Davis transports us into this enchanting world where rules are meant to be broken and laughter is abundant. "No Admittance" serves as a delightful reminder that sometimes it's okay to bend or challenge societal norms for moments of pure joy and innocent mischief.
