"Two Strings To Her Bow", a Victorian "genre" painting by John Pettie, 1882 ("two strings to one's bow" is a traditional English proverb):
This depicts a Regency young lady delighted at being the focus of attention of two rival beaux, and even seeming to enjoy playing them off against each other. It would probably have struck a somewhat false note for a Victorian artist to portray a contemporary respectable young lady uninhibitedly rejoicing in playing such a game (unless the illustration was didactically disapproving), but by moving it back to the Regency, it all somehow became quaint and historical, and the artist was freed from any perceived necessity to be morally disapproving. (In Pettie's painting, the bodice of her dress and the sharp vertical creases spaced widely around the hem are not really authentic Regency styles.)
