EDITORS COMMENTS
In this comical and entertaining print titled "Dancer and Dance Master" we are transported to the early 20th century, where a humorous scene unfolds. The image captures a moment between a plump girl, dressed in frills and fancy attire, and her dance master. This colourful lithograph is part of a private collection. The picture depicts the dance master raising his arms in criticism while the girl attempts to execute some choreography. With legs flailing about and an expression of determination on her face, she seems eager to impress. The juxtaposition of their physical appearances adds another layer of amusement to the scene. This postcard-like artwork offers social commentary on relationships, money, and gender roles during that era. The caption "fifteen bob a week" hints at the meager wages dancers received back then. It also touches upon themes related to body image as well as sexual dynamics within dance partnerships. Through its playful nature, this print invites us into a world where comedy reigns supreme. Whether you appreciate it for its comic value or find joy in its clever depiction of stage life, "Dancer and Dance Master" is sure to bring laughter into any space it graces.
