EDITORS COMMENTS
The Man Who Said Big Ben Was Wrong" is a classic and thought-provoking illustration by the renowned British cartoonist, H.M. Bateman, published in 1948. This print captures the chaos that ensues when the established order is challenged and doubt is cast upon the seemingly infallible. At the heart of the image, a man stands confidently, his back to us, as he corrects the time on Big Ben, London's iconic clock tower. Unbeknownst to him, his small act of defiance sets off a ripple effect that sends the world into disarray. The time continuum wobbles, causing the wheels of the clock to buckle and the hands to spin wildly out of control. The chaos spreads beyond Big Ben, as the entire city of London is thrown into turmoil. Birds fall from the trees, cars crash into each other, lamp posts shake, and people leap into the air, their faces contorted in shock and surprise. The once orderly world is now a scene of pandemonium, with the very fabric of reality seemingly unraveled. Bateman masterfully captures the consequences of doubting the establishment and the power of one small act to disrupt the status quo. This powerful image serves as a reminder that even the most seemingly insignificant actions can have far-reaching consequences, and that the world we live in is not as fixed and immutable as it may appear. This illustration, with its rich history and thought-provoking message, is a must-have for any collection of classic cartoons or art that explores the human condition and the power of doubt and defiance. Dated 1948, it is a testament to Bateman's artistic talent and his ability to capture the imagination and provoke thought with his work.
