EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming cartoon print titled "Attending Church, 1872. At the Church-Gate" by George Du Maurier captures a humorous scene from Victorian England. The artwork depicts an upper-class family arriving late at the church gate for Sunday service. In the foreground, we see a well-dressed woman and her young daughter walking briskly towards the entrance, while a mischievous boy lags behind them with a cheeky grin on his face. The mother appears slightly flustered as she tries to maintain her composure despite their tardiness. The artist skillfully portrays the fashion of the era, showcasing elaborate dresses and hats worn by both women in this scene. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece – from the intricate patterns on their garments to their stylish accessories. Du Maurier's wit shines through as he playfully pokes fun at societal expectations surrounding punctuality and decorum during religious gatherings. This light-hearted cartoon reminds us that even in solemn settings like attending church, there is room for humor and levity. Overall, this delightful print offers us a glimpse into Victorian England's upper-class society while providing amusement through its clever depiction of everyday life situations. It serves as a testament to George Du Maurier's talent as an illustrator and his ability to capture moments that transcend time and still resonate with audiences today.
