EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing historical print, titled "Musical Mousers: The Sudden Appearance of a Mouse Causes the Lute-Player and the Fiddler to Desert Their Companions in Mid-Concert," is a charming depiction of an unexpected interruption during a musical performance in the 19th century. The image, created in 1828, captures the moment of surprise and abandon as two musicians, a lute-player and a fiddler, are startled by the sudden appearance of a mouse among their instruments. The scene is set in a rustic, outdoor setting, with the musicians seated on makeshift benches, surrounded by their fellow performers and a small audience. The lute-player, with a look of horror on his face, leaps to his feet, abandoning his instrument and his companions in mid-performance. The fiddler, with a similar expression, follows suit, leaving his bow and viol behind. The source of their alarm is a small, alert mouse, perched atop the lute, its ears twitching as it surveys the scene. Two cats, alert and focused, are poised to pounce, adding to the sense of tension and excitement in the image. This print, from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, offers a delightful glimpse into the past, showcasing the human connection to music and the natural world, as well as the enduring fascination with the antics of our feline friends. The print's historical significance lies in its depiction of a common experience - the sudden interruption of a musical performance by an unwelcome guest - and the way it captures the human reaction to this unexpected event.
