EDITORS COMMENTS
is a humorous and entertaining postcard print by Martin Anderson, also known as "Cynicus". This early 20th-century artwork captures the essence of comic absurdity with its depiction of an unattractive male figure. With a big, red bow tie and unruly hair, this comical character's facial features are turned up in an amusingly unappealing manner. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the exaggerated size of the man's ears and lips, emphasizing his ugliness. The closed eyes add a touch of sadness or melancholy to his expression, while the oversized collar and thin bowtie further enhance his revolting appearance. Despite its grotesque portrayal, there is a sense of humor in this postcard that can bring smiles to viewers' faces. The playfulness lies not only in the man's physical attributes but also in the title itself: "I am coming to see you tonight" which adds an element of surprise or threat. This artwork showcases Cynicus' talent for creating funny and entertaining illustrations that evoke emotions ranging from amusement to unhappiness. It serves as a reminder that even within ugliness or sadness, there can be moments of lightheartedness and joy.
