The Clever Fish - A Tale of Wit and Wary Wisdom
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful comic postcard, dated back to the 20th century, showcases a humorous encounter between a fish and an angler. The scene is set in a vibrant underwater world, where a fish, with a mischievous grin on its face, skillfully avoids the outstretched worm on a fisherman's hook. The fish's expression is priceless - a smile that speaks volumes of its amusement at the human's attempt to outwit it. The fisherman, depicted as a quintessential British angler, seems taken aback by the fish's quick thinking. He looks perplexed, with a quizzical expression, as if wondering how this fish managed to evade his bait yet again. The background of the postcard is filled with an array of colorful marine life, adding to the whimsical charm of the illustration. This comic postcard is a testament to the humanized and verbal world of Donald McGill, a renowned British postcard artist. McGill was known for his humorous and light-hearted take on everyday life, often incorporating witty dialogue and clever visual puns into his work. In this particular piece, the fish's ability to communicate through its expression and body language adds an extra layer of fun and humor to the scene. The fish, with its careful and wary demeanor, is a reminder that even in the most seemingly one-sided battles, the underdog can sometimes come out on top. The postcard's enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke laughter and delight, making it a cherished piece of comic art from the 20th century.
