A Good Rainfall
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming illustration from Lance Thackeray's Amateur Gardening series, dated 1906. The postcard depicts a delightful scene of a young woman in a red dress standing in her garden, watering a high hedge with a large can. Her male companion, dressed in a suit and hat, looks on from below, playfully shielding himself from the water that cascades down the hedge and lands on him, soaking him through. The woman, with a mischievous grin, teases him to go and get dry. Thackeray's illustration captures the essence of a blissful moment in a garden during a rain shower. The lush greenery, the vibrant red of the woman's dress, and the playful banter between the couple create a scene that is both whimsical and romantic. The use of a ladder adds an element of practicality to the scene, highlighting the dedication and hard work that goes into maintaining a beautiful garden. The illustration also hints at the beginning of a courtship, with the woman taking the lead in the watering and the man playfully submitting to her teasing. The rainfall serves as a metaphor for the unpredictability and excitement of new love, as well as the refreshing and rejuvenating effects it can have on a relationship. Overall, "A Good Rainfall" is a lovely and endearing representation of the simple pleasures of gardening and the joys of a budding romance.
