EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating historical print captures a moment in time from the year 1840, depicting a traveller who has just paid his bill and is leaving an inn. However, to his surprise, every man and woman's hand is raised against him - demanding tips for their services. This scene provides a glimpse into the customs of tipping during this era, where it was expected for guests to leave gratuities for hotel staff.
The image showcases the interaction between travellers and servants at hotels during the 19th century, shedding light on the social norms and expectations of that time period. It serves as a reminder of how different things were back then compared to modern-day practices.
The composition of the print is striking, with each figure captured in motion as they extend their hands towards the departing traveller. The details in clothing and facial expressions add depth to the narrative, making it feel like you are witnessing this moment firsthand.
Overall, "Tips all Round" is not just a snapshot of history but also a reflection on human interactions and societal conventions that have evolved over time. It invites viewers to ponder on how tipping culture has changed since then while appreciating the rich tapestry of our past experiences.
