In the Bars and Streets - A Drunken Surprise
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Phil May's Whimsical Illustration of 1896 This cartoon drawing by Phil May, dated 1896, titled "In the Bars and Streets," presents a humorous and intriguing scene of a drunken man's unexpected discovery. The image showcases a plastered gentleman, with a quizzical expression on his face, holding a large tankard. The man's astonishment is evident as he exclaims, "Mos tronary thing! A most shertain th was shome coffee I it." The man's tankard, which he had mistakenly believed contained his usual coffee, is, in fact, filled to the brim with beer. The artist, Phil May, masterfully captures the essence of the man's surprise and the momentary pause before the inevitable draining of the tankard's contents. The man's tankard, with its rich, frothy head, drains, spilling beer onto the table and the floor. The illustration offers a glimpse into the historical context of the late 19th century, when alcohol consumption was a common pastime, especially in bars and taverns. The man's state of drunkenness and the spillage of beer are depicted in a lighthearted and whimsical manner, reflecting the social norms and attitudes of the time. Phil May's illustration, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, is a testament to the artist's skill and the enduring appeal of humorous and relatable scenes from the past. This image, with its rich historical context, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the past, inviting us to reflect on the human condition and the universal experiences of surprise, confusion, and the joys of a well-poured drink.
