EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Causation, 1882". George du Maurier skillfully captures the stark contrast between social classes in the 19th century. The scene depicts a finely-clad mistress eagerly awaiting her long-awaited boiled egg, while her servant stands by with a different concept of time. The image symbolizes not only the disparity in wealth but also highlights the rigid hierarchy that existed during this era. The mistress, dressed in elegant attire, represents privilege and luxury, while the servant's simple uniform and apron signify her role as an industry worker. Du Maurier's cartoon-like style adds a touch of humor to this thought-provoking piece. It invites viewers to reflect on societal norms surrounding occupation and class distinctions prevalent at that time. This print serves as a reminder of how far society has come since then, shedding light on our progress towards equality and fair treatment for all individuals regardless of their profession or background. It is a testament to the importance of recognizing every person's worth beyond their occupation or social status. As we gaze upon this heritage image partnership print from du Maurier's collection, we are reminded of our shared history and encouraged to continue striving for a more inclusive future where everyone can enjoy breakfast without being defined by their clothes or position in society.
