12th Admits Deep Stan Terry 1925
EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous illustration by Stan Terry, titled "Well Above Pa," captures a comical moment between two sea-bathers. One of the bathers confesses to standing on her father, which is the reason she appears to be in deep water while her companion looks on in amusement. The scene, depicted with Terry's signature wit and charm, showcases a playful interaction that is sure to bring a smile to anyone who views it.
Terry's illustration was originally published in The Illustrated London News on August 12th, 1925, and has since become an iconic piece of historical humor. The clever use of perspective and the exaggerated expressions on the characters' faces add to the overall whimsical tone of the artwork.
As we look at this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, we can't help but imagine the scenario unfolding before our eyes. It's easy to picture the bather balancing precariously on her father's shoulders as he struggles beneath her weight. This lighthearted image reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously and find joy in even the most unexpected situations.
So next time you're at the beach with your family, remember this delightful illustration and maybe consider giving your loved ones a break – both figuratively and literally!
