EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous colour litho print titled "How's yer little Mary" captures a scene from the early 20th century with a satirical twist. The image features a fat man smoking a cigar, exuding an air of nonchalant humor. The postcard-style composition adds to the charm of this piece, making it feel like a snapshot from another era.
The artist behind this work from the English School of the 20th century has cleverly incorporated elements such as tobacco packets and an umbrella to add depth to the character and setting. The exaggerated size of the man's figure adds to the comedic effect, highlighting societal attitudes towards obesity during that time.
Through this satirical cartoon, we are invited to reflect on themes such as smoking addiction, body image, and social norms. The use of vibrant colours enhances the playful nature of the artwork, drawing viewers in with its lighthearted tone.
Overall, "How's yer little Mary" is not just a visual delight but also serves as a reminder of how art can be used to provoke thought and spark conversations about everyday life. This print is sure to bring joy and laughter to any space it graces.
