I Am Pushed For Money
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and whimsical colour litho print that captures the essence of financial struggle with a touch of humor. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 20th century, this postcard-turned-artwork showcases a satirical cartoon featuring men wearing top hats pushing bath chairs or wheelchairs. The image cleverly combines elements of Victorian society, absurdity, and wordplay to deliver its message. In this comical scene, a young boy clad in rags sits atop one of the bath chairs while clutching onto blankets for warmth. The caption beneath reads "I Am Pushed For Money" emphasizing both his dire financial situation and the literal act of being pushed around by others. The presence of other children adds to the playful atmosphere as they join in on this mischievous adventure. The artist's use of bold colors and exaggerated caricatures enhances the satirical nature of the drawing, making it impossible not to chuckle at its cleverness. This piece serves as a scathing satire on finance and wealth disparities during that era. "I Am Pushed For Money" is an amusing reminder that even in times when money may be scarce, laughter can still be found through creative expression. It invites viewers to reflect on their own relationship with finances while appreciating the timeless appeal of cartoons and puns.
