Flower Girl offering a Gentleman a Flower, London, England Subject The topic of the resource Flower Girl Women clothing and dress, Victorian Period Street-Seller, London, England city life 1890-1889 Westminster Abbey Male clothing in Victorian Period Lithograph Postcard 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 3 features a girl offering a flower to a gentleman outside of Westminster Abbey. Flower girls moved up and down the streets with heavy cane baskets full of flowers. Henry Mayhew described two types of Flower Girls in his 1861 report on London Labour and the London Poor. The first, considered a "better class" of flower girls, worked very hard in wealthier areas, giving the money they earned to their parents. The second, were women who dressed coquettishly and took to the street later in the night, near theaters and casinos. This type would use selling flowers as a pretense to meet men for “immoral purposes”, and gave flowers girls a negative stereotype.
