Description An account of the resource 1 postcard recto and verso. Ladies dancing in the street to a Barrel Organ, London, England Type The nature or genre of the resource Still image, picture postcard with divided back, 3.5 x 5.5 in Abstract A summary of the resource. From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 8 shows two ladies dancing to a street grinder (performer) play his barrel organ. Victorian street music represented a "festive disruption" from middle class musical preferences, and was considered "provocative" (Picker 63). Street organs are mobile, allowing street grinders to move where they please. Street performers were considered during this period disgraceful, and a representation of lower classes. The ladies dancing too, were considered to be of ill repute. Their dresses, and suggestiveness of showing their ankles visually demonstrates this.
