Granpop Gives Him an Earful: A Humorous Illustration by Lawson Wood, 1934 In this delightful and humorous illustration by Lawson Wood, titled "Granpop Gives Him an Earful," we find our wily orang-utan, Granpop, in a playful yet protective mode. The scene unfolds as a thieving pig, with a mischievous glint in its eye, attempts to make off with a jar of tomatoes, presumably for some ill-intended purpose. Granpop, ever the quick thinker and defender of his food supplies, swiftly hurls a ripe tomato at the pig, aiming for its ear. The tomato flies through the air, leaving a trail of red splatters in its wake, as the pig squeals in surprise and indignation. The other jars of pickled vegetables in the background seem to shake in anticipation, as if they too might be called upon to defend against the pig's thieving ways. Lawson Wood's anthropomorphic characters, Granpop and the pig, bring a sense of humor and whimsy to this charming illustration. The orang-utan's expression is one of determination and amusement, while the pig's is one of shock and disbelief. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details add to the visual appeal of this timeless work. This illustration, created in 1934, showcases Lawson Wood's exceptional talent for capturing the essence of humor and mischief in everyday situations. It is a delightful reminder of the simple joys of life and the importance of standing up for what is right, even when it comes to protecting one's tomato jar from a thieving pig.
