EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A New Cock Wanted, Or Work For The Plumber" takes us back to the early 19th century. It is a reproduction of an illustration by Thomas Rowlandson from his series published in 1810. This particular image was featured in Eduard Fuchs' comprehensive book on social customs throughout history, "Illustrierte Sittengeschichte Vom Mittelalter Bis Zur Gegenwart" released in 1909. The scene depicted showcases an elderly husband and his attractive wife inside their kitchen. The husband, with a mischievous smile on his face, observes as a handsome young plumber flirts playfully with his wife. Tools of the plumbing trade are scattered about the room, adding authenticity to this suggestive moment. Rowlandson's artistry skillfully captures both humor and eroticism through subtle double entendre. The title itself cleverly alludes to both plumbing work and sexual innuendo, creating a playful yet scandalous atmosphere. Ken Welsh's expert printing technique brings out the intricate details of this historical artwork while preserving its vintage charm. This print serves as a fascinating glimpse into societal norms and relationships during the 19th century—a time when flirtation could be found even amidst everyday household tasks
