EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Ancient Ruins and Modern Tourists: A Sheepish Following". In this charming 1929 cartoon print by Alfred Leete, we find ourselves transported back in time to an ancient ruin, where a group of holidaymakers eagerly explore the wonders of the past. Dressed in their finest holiday attire, the tourists follow their guide with unwavering obedience, each one gazing intently at the crumbling stones and intricate carvings that surround them. The scene is reminiscent of the burgeoning era of mass tourism, as people from all walks of life sought to experience new cultures and historical sites. Yet, amidst the excitement and curiosity, Leete injects a touch of amusing humor into the scene. The guide, with a stern expression and outstretched arm, leads the group like a shepherd, while the tourists follow in a neat line, much like a flock of sheep. This whimsical depiction not only captures the spirit of adventure and discovery that defined the holiday experience for many during this period but also highlights the inherent human tendency to follow the crowd. The ancient ruin, once a symbol of grandeur and power, now serves as a backdrop for a modern-day pilgrimage, where the allure of new experiences and the comfort of group travel reign supreme. As we gaze upon this delightful image, we can't help but smile at the irony of the situation – a group of intrepid tourists, led like sheep through the ruins of the past, in search of their own history. This print, with its timeless humor and insightful commentary, serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of travel and the human desire to explore the unknown.
