EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Groom (colour litho)" takes us back to the late nineteenth century in Victorian London. The image showcases a street groom, a character who was an integral part of city life during that era. The groom is depicted alongside a lady, highlighting the social dynamics and interactions between different classes. The trade of being a groom required immense skill and knowledge about horses. This particular illustration was created for the book "London Characters" as part of Aunt Louisa's London Toy Books series by Frederick Warne around 1880. It beautifully captures the essence of this occupation, showcasing the hardworking nature and dedication of these individuals. In this scene, we see the groom dressed in traditional attire with his horse in Gods Plenty Park. The park serves as a backdrop to their daily routine, emphasizing how animals were an essential part of urban life even amidst bustling cities like London. This print not only provides us with a glimpse into history but also celebrates the rich diversity of occupations that existed during that time period. It reminds us of how different trades shaped society and contributed to its functioning. Bridgeman Images has done justice to preserving this piece from our past through their meticulous reproduction techniques, allowing viewers today to appreciate and learn from it.
