EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and humorous colour lithograph print by Phil May captures the essence of early 20th-century satire with a touch of wit and charm. The sketch, part of a set originally issued by Fry's Chocolates around 1905, showcases May's talent for creating scathing yet light-hearted cartoons that poke fun at societal norms.
In this particular piece, we see a comical scene featuring a man indulging in his smoking addiction with either a pipe or cigarette in hand. The exaggerated facial expressions and playful details add to the overall whimsical nature of the artwork. From the tobacco packet to the mischievous grin on the smoker's face, every element is carefully crafted to evoke laughter and amusement.
May's mastery of satirical drawing is evident in this piece, as he skillfully combines elements of humour and social commentary into one cohesive image. The bold colours and dynamic lines bring the cartoon to life, making it an engaging work of art that continues to captivate viewers even today.
Whether you're a fan of vintage comedy or simply appreciate fine art with a twist, this Phil May sketch is sure to bring joy and entertainment to any space it graces.
