EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and humorous print by H.M. Bateman, titled "The Rules of Life," captures the essence of childhood and the many influential figures who impart their wisdom and guidance on a curious and wide-eyed baby. Dated back to 1930, the image shows a baby seated in a highchair, surrounded by a queue of notable figures, each presenting a rule for life on a slip of paper. At the head of the line is the baby's nurse, holding a rule that reads, "First rule: Don't put your fingers in the electric socket." Next in line is the baby's mother, with the rule, "Second rule: Share your toys with your sister." A teacher follows with, "Third rule: Always do your homework," while a police officer adds, "Fourth rule: Obey your parents." The queue continues with a judge, holding the rule, "Fifth rule: Tell the truth," and a vicar, with the rule, "Sixth rule: Go to church every Sunday." The baby, seemingly overwhelmed by the influx of advice, looks up at the growing line with a quizzical expression. This amusing and timeless print is a reminder of the many influential people and rules that shape our lives, from our earliest days. Bateman's masterful use of comedy and cartoon illustration makes for an entertaining and enduring piece of art that continues to resonate with audiences today.
