EDITORS COMMENTS
Weather Report - Illustrated: A Humorous Take on Seasickness in the Early 1900s This charming illustration, titled "Breezy" from the Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the humorous side of a common maritime mishap - seasickness. The image features a green-faced, sickly-looking gentleman, seated by a ship's rail, with a pained expression on his face as he tries to escape the attentions of a rosy-cheeked, rotund fellow passenger. The jovial and portly man, with a pipe clenched between his teeth, seems oblivious to the discomfort of his seated companion, adding to the scene's amusing contrast. The year is 1905, and the gentlemen, dressed in waistcoats and hats, are at the mercy of the elements. The sea around them is choppy, with whitecaps forming on the waves, hinting at the storm or gale that may have caused the gentleman's distress. The title "Breezy" is a playful nod to the windy conditions, as well as the rotund passenger's cheerful demeanor. The illustration offers a glimpse into the lighthearted world of seafaring in the early 1900s, where even the most unpleasant experiences could be turned into a source of humor. The use of wordplay, such as "Weather Report - Illustrated," adds to the overall fun and whimsy of the image. Whether you're a fan of maritime history, humor, or simply a lover of vintage illustrations, this print is sure to bring a smile to your face.
