EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "She never slumbered in her pew" captures a whimsical scene from Oliver Goldsmith's poem, "An Elegy on the Glory of Her Sex, Mrs. Mary Blaize". Illustrated by the talented Randolph Caldecott, this artwork is featured in his renowned book, "The Panjandrum Picture Book". In this delightful image, we see a congregation at church during the 18th or 19th century. Amongst them stands a lady dressed in vibrant silks and satins with an enormous hoop skirt. Despite her extravagant attire, she defies expectations by refusing to doze off during the sermon. Caldecott's illustration skillfully portrays humor and irony as he depicts the lady shutting her eyes only when everyone else does. This playful twist adds a touch of comedy to an otherwise solemn setting. With its vivid colors and attention to detail, this print showcases Caldecott's artistic brilliance and his ability to bring characters from literature to life. The woman depicted here represents women of that era who were expected to conform but dared to challenge societal norms through subtle acts of rebellion. As we admire this charming piece of artistry by Randolph Caldecott, we are reminded of the enduring power of imagination and creativity that transcends time.
