EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and humorous print captures a playful moment in the early 20th century. The image depicts a woman tying her garter, with a mischievous twist. A boy stands beside her, pretending to be blind while she playfully adjusts her stocking. This comic scene is brilliantly portrayed through the use of color lithography. The postcard format adds to the charm of this artwork, making it an intriguing piece from a private collection. The artist's identity remains unknown but their skillful execution shines through in this satirical drawing. The caption invites us to explore various themes within the image - from gender roles and societal expectations to disability and childhood innocence. It cleverly combines elements of comedy and social commentary, highlighting the absurdity of pretending blindness for amusement. Through its caricature-like style, this satirical cartoon challenges our perceptions and offers scathing satire on beggars and disabilities prevalent during that era. It reminds us of how society often marginalized those with infirmities or handicaps. Overall, this print not only showcases artistic talent but also serves as a window into historical attitudes towards disability and societal norms surrounding gender roles. Its vibrant colors and witty composition make it an engaging piece that sparks curiosity about life in the early 20th century.
