Origin Species, CH Bennett, husband hunter - mouse
Little Mousey. Satire on Darwins Origin of Species showing the evolution of a young woman on the look out for a husband, from a mouse. Young women who wear crinoline, under the pretense of looking out for a husband, are (apparently) really seeking the provisions and comforts of a good home - a quiet little cheese to nibble at. As she sits quietly, fan in hand, her dress is transformed into a large cheese, while the quiet little creature herself evolves into a mouse...that eats the cheese...with a knife, evolved from her fan

Little Mousey - A Satirical Take on Darwin's 'Origin of Species' and the Evolution of Marriage in the 1860s
EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph print, titled "Little Mousey," offers a delightful and satirical twist on Charles Darwin's groundbreaking theory of evolution as applied to the social construct of marriage in the 1860s. The image features a young woman, CH Bennett, depicted in a traditional crinoline dress and holding a fan, seemingly on the hunt for a suitable husband. However, upon closer inspection, the scene takes on a surprising and humorous turn. As the young woman sits quietly, her dress transforms into a large, enticing wheel of cheese, while she evolves into a mouse, nibbling at the cheese with an evolved fan-turned-knife. This satirical portrayal of the marriage market during the Victorian era playfully highlights the notion that young women, under the guise of seeking a husband, were in fact looking for the provisions and comforts of a good home. The image is a clever commentary on the societal pressures faced by women during this time, as they were expected to secure a husband in order to ensure a stable future. The transformation of the woman into a mouse adds an element of whimsy and humor to the otherwise serious topic, making for an intriguing and thought-provoking piece of historical satire. This photograph print, with its unique blend of history, satire, and visual wit, is a must-have for any collection focusing on the social and cultural aspects of the 19th century. The image, produced by Mary Evans Prints Online, is not to be used for commercial purposes and is available as a rights-managed print.
