EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Apple, the cause of it all" is a vibrant and humorous comic postcard from the early 20th century. It features an English School artwork that playfully explores the theme of food. The image depicts a person with their mouth wide open, seemingly in shock or surprise, as they hold an apple in their hand. The colorful lithograph captures the moment perfectly, showcasing the artist's skill in illustration. This amusing postcard reminds us of the power that food holds over our bodies and minds. The apple, often associated with temptation and knowledge due to its biblical references, becomes the central focus here. It symbolizes both pleasure and consequence - a source of nourishment but also potentially leading to expulsion or discomfort. Through this lighthearted portrayal, we are reminded of how food shapes our history and culture. From botany to natural history and science, every mealtime offers an opportunity for exploration and understanding. The clever use of humor adds another layer to this artwork's appeal. It invites us to reflect on our own relationship with food while bringing a smile to our faces. Overall, this delightful lithograph captures not only the beauty but also the wit behind art from early twentieth-century postcards. Its vivid colors and comedic elements make it a captivating addition to any collection or display focused on historical illustrations or humorous themes related to food supply and consumption.
