EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous illustration by Lawson Wood from the 20th century is a perfect depiction of the saying "business keeps going up." In this comical image, we see Gran pop the orangutan having to saw a hole in the ceiling to accommodate his ever-growing sales projection. The sheer absurdity of an orangutan running a successful business and expanding so rapidly is both hilarious and thought-provoking.
Lawson Wood's unique style and attention to detail bring this scene to life, with Gran pop looking determined as he takes on the task at hand. The historical significance of this illustration adds another layer of interest, showcasing how humor has always been a part of human history.
As we look at this image, we can't help but chuckle at the idea of an orangutan outsmarting humans in the world of business. It serves as a reminder that success can come from unexpected places and that sometimes thinking outside the box – or in this case, through it – is necessary for growth.
Overall, this print captures both the whimsy and ambition inherent in entrepreneurship. It's a playful reminder that even when faced with challenges like needing to literally break through ceilings, determination and creativity can lead to great success.
