1896 Advertising Appliance Argument Carr Curtain Domestic Ladder Lover Slogan Tape Victorian Window Venetian Blind
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a piece of history from the late 19th century. Titled "CARRs VENETIAN BLIND 1896" this English newspaper advertisement showcases an innovative household appliance that revolutionized window coverings during the Victorian era. The image depicts a well-dressed couple, surrounded by men and women, all seemingly engaged in an animated discussion about the advertised product. The focal point is undoubtedly the Venetian blind itself, elegantly displayed with its intricate tape design and ladder-like structure. The advertisement's slogan cleverly emphasizes the benefits of Carr's Venetian Blind: "Turn of the Century Elegance for Your Windows". This phrase speaks to both practicality and style, suggesting that these blinds not only provide privacy but also add a touch of sophistication to any home. Intriguingly, this photograph does not focus on commercial use or promote any specific company. Instead, it offers us a glimpse into domestic life at the time – how people interacted with new technologies and discussed their merits among friends or acquaintances. As we gaze upon this print from Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back in time to witness an argumentative yet exciting conversation surrounding modern appliances. It serves as a reminder that even in our fast-paced world today, there is always room for innovation and lively discussions about improving our everyday lives.
