Diet, What colour shall I dye it?
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a whimsical and humorous postcard from the early 20th century that captures the essence of society's fascination with weight loss and dieting. The color lithograph print, created by an anonymous English School artist, showcases a comical scene where an overweight individual seeks advice on what color to dye their diet. The image cleverly combines elements of fashion, medicine, and humor to convey its message. The doctor in the picture appears amused by the question posed by his patient, highlighting the absurdity of trying to change one's diet through coloring. This playfulness adds a lighthearted touch to a topic often associated with seriousness and discipline. This postcard not only reflects societal attitudes towards obesity but also serves as a reminder of how our perception of health has evolved over time. It reminds us that even in challenging situations like weight management, laughter can be good medicine. As we admire this vintage artwork from Look and Learn's private collection via Bridgeman Images, we are reminded that sometimes it is essential to approach serious matters with humor. In today's world where diets dominate conversations about health and wellness, "Diet, What colour shall I dye it?" offers us a delightful escape into an era when poking fun at our dietary struggles was both acceptable and entertaining.
