EDITORS COMMENTS
The Three Customers" is a captivating pen and ink drawing by the renowned British artist, Randolph Caldecott, from the 19th century. This monochrome masterpiece, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases three customers, arm in arm and linked, standing on a bustling pavement. The women, dressed in Victorian attire, display a range of expressive postures and personalities, adding depth to the satirical scene. The background of the drawing is filled with intricate details of a horse-drawn vehicle and a horse and carriage parked on the side of the road. The horse, with its horse-drawn transport, adds a sense of traditional English heritage to the image. The women's outfits, from their bonnets to their long skirts, further emphasize the historical context of the artwork. Caldecott's use of pen and ink, corrected with white gouache, creates a striking contrast between the intricate details and the blank background. The artist's skillful use of outline and shading adds depth and dimension to the drawing, making each figure come to life. The Three Customers is a conceptual piece that invites the viewer to ponder the nature of friendship and companionship. The women's close proximity and interlinked arms suggest a strong bond between them, while their diverse postures and expressions hint at the complexities of human relationships. This satirical drawing by Caldecott is a must-see for any art enthusiast or history buff, offering a glimpse into the past through the lens of a masterful artist. The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to preserve and display this important work of art for future generations to enjoy and appreciate.
