1875 Amusing Angus Changing Cricket Fashions Jul16 Lords Loud Macpherson Satire Tartan Taste Tastes Trousers Fashionable
EDITORS COMMENTS
Angus Macpherson at Lords: A Tale of Changing Fashions and Tastes This delightful illustration by the renowned cartoonist Patrick Bellew showcases a humorous and satirical comparison of Angus Macpherson's fashionable attire at Lords Cricket Ground during two distinct periods: 1875 and 1930. In the first scene, set in the Victorian era, a young Angus Macpherson, dressed in flamboyant tartan trousers, proudly stands amongst his peers at Lords. The vibrant plaid fabric, a symbol of Scottish heritage and a popular fashion trend during the 1870s, adds a touch of exoticism and charm to his appearance. Fast forward to 1930, and Angus Macpherson, now considerably older and more rotund, returns to Lords Cricket Ground. His once fashionable tartan trousers, however, are no longer in vogue. The 1930s, with its sleek and understated style, finds Angus's loud and bold outfit rather out of place. Bellew's social satire brilliantly highlights the evolving fashion trends and tastes of the time. The contrast between the two scenes not only provides a humorous commentary on the absurdity of fashion but also serves as a reminder of the ever-changing social norms and expectations. This illustration, brought to you by the Illustrated London News Ltd and Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of fashion, cricket, and social satire. With its vivid colors and amusing depiction of Angus Macpherson's fashion faux pas, this print is sure to bring a smile to your face and add a touch of whimsy to any room in your home or office.
