EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph titled "Boss flirting with his secretary" captures a humorous and intriguing moment in early 20th-century office dynamics. The print, created by an English School artist, showcases the amusing yet controversial relationship between a boss and his secretary. Set in an office environment, the image portrays a man of authority engaging in flirtatious behavior towards his typist while dictating work. The composition exudes humor through its clever depiction of various elements. A cigarette dangles from the boss's mouth as he confidently leans against a desk, holding a glass of port. His attention is fixated on the attractive secretary who sits at her typewriter, seemingly amused by his advances. Adding to the comical atmosphere is their loyal canine companion observing this playful exchange. While showcasing workplace dynamics and gender relations of that era, this postcard-sized artwork also touches upon themes such as power dynamics and inappropriate behavior within professional settings. It serves as both entertainment and social commentary on relationships between men and women during that time period. With its vibrant colors and witty portrayal, this print offers viewers a glimpse into history while providing amusement through its relatable comic scenario. This piece exemplifies how art can capture moments from everyday life with humor and charm while shedding light on societal issues that persist even today.
