EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming colour lithograph print titled "Commands: Wipe your shoes on the mat" captures a nostalgic scene from mid-20th century England. The image, part of the Commands Picture Book series, depicts a simple yet important instruction to wipe one's shoes on the mat before entering a home.
The illustration exudes a sense of traditional British etiquette and manners, reminding viewers of the importance of cleanliness and respect for one's surroundings. The pair of shoes featured in the print symbolize everyday life and routine actions that are often taken for granted.
The vibrant colours used in this artwork bring warmth and cheerfulness to the scene, making it feel inviting and familiar. The attention to detail in depicting the texture of the mat adds depth and realism to the composition.
Overall, this print serves as a delightful reminder of simpler times when such small gestures were considered essential in maintaining order and courtesy. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era when following basic commands like wiping one's shoes on the mat was not just a rule but a way of life.
