Nature Is Full of Mysteries
This is a socio-political cartoon, C.1860. The phrase, The Arsenic Waltz alludes to the use of arsenic in dresses and artificial flowers. The illustration appeared in a British humour magazine, a few months after a worker in the fashion industry died of arsenic poisoning. Arsenic was everywhere in Victorian Britain. Although it was known to be used as a murder weapon, the cheap, natural element was used in clothing, candles, curtains, and wallpaper. Because it dyed fabric bright green, arsenic also ended up in dresses, gloves, shoes, and artificial flower wreaths that women used to decorate their hair and clothes. It would be the perfect card to give to a lover of antique skeletal art, medical illustrations, or just for that special someone.
