EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical and humorous cartoon print from 1919 captures a truly remarkable instance of quick skating. In the image, a man is seen ice skating so fast that he leaves his shadow behind him on the ice. The speed at which he is gliding across the frozen surface is evident in the exaggerated length of his shadow, creating a comical and fantastical scene.
The artist's playful depiction of this historical sport showcases both their creativity and sense of humor. The man's determined expression as he races ahead adds to the overall sense of movement and excitement in the illustration.
This charming artwork serves as a reminder of the joy and thrill that can be found in physical activity, as well as the imaginative possibilities that art can bring to life. It captures a moment where reality blends with fantasy, inviting viewers to imagine themselves flying across an icy landscape at lightning speed.
