EDITORS COMMENTS
Studies for A Coster Girl Dancing" is a captivating artwork by Phil May, showcasing the vibrant and lively spirit of Cockney culture in London during the 1890s. The image depicts a group of coster girls, young women who were traditionally associated with selling fruits, vegetables, and other goods from barrows in the bustling markets of the East End. May's painting captures the essence of a "Cockney knees up," a term used to describe a lively and boisterous social gathering. The coster girls are depicted in the midst of a dance, their brown skirts swirling around them as they laugh and clap, their infectious energy spilling over into the scene. The mother at the center of the group watches with a proud smile, her arms wrapped protectively around her child. The costermongers, or market traders, were an integral part of the East End community, and their presence is felt throughout the painting. The barrows laden with produce can be seen in the background, while the women's clothing and accessories reflect the practical yet colorful nature of their work. This painting offers a glimpse into the history of Cockney life, a time when the community was known for its resilience, humor, and strong sense of community. The coster girls, with their lively spirit and infectious energy, embody the essence of this vibrant and often misunderstood part of London's history. May's "Studies for A Coster Girl Dancing" is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the East End and the enduring spirit of the Cockney people. The painting invites us to step back in time and experience a moment of joy and connection in the heart of London's historic markets.
