EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorful engraving by Cham, titled "We gentlemen all love virtuous maidens" captures the essence of a bounder or cad admiring a pretty girl. The caricature portrays a scene where the lecherous male character is seen ogling at the young woman with an unmistakable lustful gaze. Despite his questionable intentions, it is evident that he cannot resist her charm and beauty. The image showcases various elements that add depth to its narrative. The female subject exudes confidence as she casually smokes a cigar, challenging societal norms of femininity during that era. Her lap dog rests comfortably on her lap, symbolizing both luxury and companionship. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; from the crinoline dress worn by the maiden to the muff she holds in her hand, every aspect contributes to creating an authentic representation of this period in history. Cham's work invites us to reflect upon themes such as love, desire, and social dynamics between men and women during this time. It serves as a reminder that even though some individuals may possess questionable morals or intentions, they too can be captivated by virtuous maidens like this one. This print from Bridgeman Images offers viewers an opportunity to delve into historical art while appreciating its artistic merit and storytelling prowess.
