Perils of Daily Life, 1881 - A Glimpse into the Hazards of Everyday Existence
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Perils of Daily Life, 1881" takes us back to a time when danger lurked around every corner. Engraved after a drawing by Yeager and Thulstrup, this artwork vividly depicts the common accidents and treacherous situations that men, women, and children faced in their daily routines during the late 19th century. The scene unfolds with chaotic intensity as we witness various calamities unfolding simultaneously. From burning buildings to crashing stagecoaches, from leaking gas pipes to failing rifle shots – each frame portrays the precariousness of existence in an era where safety measures were yet to be fully realized. Amidst this chaos, we see brave individuals attempting to navigate through these perils. Men valiantly carry heavy loads while women courageously sled down snowy slopes. Yet despite their resilience, there is an undeniable sense of vulnerability that permeates the image. Through this engraving's intricate details and skilled craftsmanship, it serves as a poignant reminder that life has always been fraught with risks. It prompts us to reflect on our own modern-day dangers and appreciate how far we have come in terms of safety standards. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time by Granger Art on Demand's impeccable printing technique, let us remember those who came before us – ordinary people who confronted extraordinary challenges just to survive another day.
