My Wife Won't Let Me!
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Playful Turn of the Century Mouse Tale, 1907 In this charming turn-of-the-century illustration, a male mouse, with a mischievous glint in his eyes, is held back by his wife, a stern and determined female mouse. The scene unfolds before a quaint and rustic kitchen setting, with a little wire mousetrap lying ominously nearby. The tempting block of cheese, dangling precariously within the trap's jaws, beckons the male mouse, who is clearly enticed by the prospect of a tasty treat. However, his wife, with a protective and cautionary gaze, firmly holds him back. Her unwavering grip and stern expression convey her concern for his safety and well-being. The male mouse, with a look of disappointment and frustration, appears to be pulling against her, yearning for the tempting morsel. This delightful image serves as a commentary on the age-old theme of the male member of the household not being allowed to indulge in potentially dangerous or untimely activities, even if it means missing out on a moment of pleasure or temptation. The danger and risk of the situation are palpable, with the ever-present threat of the mousetrap looming large. The use of contrasting colors and textures, as well as the playful and expressive body language of the mice, add to the whimsical and endearing nature of the scene. This charming print, from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, offers a lighthearted and entertaining glimpse into the world of turn-of-the-century mouse life, and the intricacies of the relationships that existed within it.
