Exchange No Robbery - A Whimsical Glimpse into Victorian Humour
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This delightful lithograph, titled "Exchange No Robbery" takes us back to the 19th century with its charming depiction of a bustling street scene. Created by Albert Besnou, this print captures the essence of Victorian humour and showcases his exceptional talent as an artist. The image transports us to a lively marketplace where children are engaged in a playful exchange. The focal point is a group of youngsters wearing an assortment of hats, each one more comical than the last. Their mischievous expressions hint at their intentions as they engage in what appears to be a hat-swapping game. Besnou's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the intricate patterns on the hats to the animated gestures of these young characters, he brings this humorous scene to life with remarkable skill. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we discover that it was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News in September 1900. Its inclusion in such a prestigious publication speaks volumes about its popularity and enduring appeal. "Exchange No Robbery" serves as both entertainment and social commentary, offering us a glimpse into everyday life during this era while reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously. This whimsical print from Bridgeman Images is sure to bring joy and laughter wherever it finds itself displayed.
