EDITORS COMMENTS
In the quaint and intriguing illustration by H.M. Bateman, titled "The Deserted Village," we witness an intriguing scene that unfolds in two distinct halves. The first half of the image portrays a distinguished society, gathered in a grand hall, engrossed in a heated discussion. An architect, standing at the podium, addresses the group with a look of surprise on his face. The reason for his astonishment? A village, located near the bustling city of London, that had somehow gone unnoticed by the city's inhabitants. Fortunately, the matter was brought to the attention of the press, and the error was soon rectified. The second half of the illustration reveals the cause of the architect's surprise. A picturesque village scene unfolds before us, with quaint cottages, men in bowler hats, and women in long skirts, all going about their daily business. However, something is amiss. The idyllic village is now filled with the modern conveniences of the 1920s – cars and omnibus vehicles line the streets, and the gentle folk of London descend upon the village in droves. The architect, now a mere spectator, watches as the village, once a hidden gem, is transformed into a popular tourist destination. The scene is a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the inexorable march of progress. Bateman's illustration, with its intricate details and clever commentary, continues to captivate and delight viewers almost a century after it was first created.
