'Small Things Amuse Small Minds', 1872.
'Small Things Amuse Small Minds', 1872. The rain falls as Mr and Mrs Jessamy shelter under a huge umbrella whilst watering their carefully tended garden. The Victorian period was one of many inventions, the garden hose amongst them. It was only recently that water supplies were sufficient to allow such labour saving devices to be used. Not even the weather would prevent this couple from trying out a new household purchase. From Punch, or the London Charivari, June 15, 1872.
