The Host Who Forgot to Approve the Dish
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a classic humorous illustration by British cartoonist H.M. Bateman, created in 1926. The scene depicts an elegant dinner party coming to a sudden halt as the host, standing in the background with a mortified expression, realizes that he has forgotten to approve the main course before serving it to his guests. Everyone at the table looks on in shock and embarrassment, with some covering their mouths in disbelief. The musicians, who had been playing lively music to set the mood for the evening, have also stopped, their instruments silent. The tension in the room is palpable, as the diners exchange disapproving glances, wondering how such a blunder could have occurred. Despite the awkward situation, Bateman's illustration manages to infuse the scene with a touch of humor. The exaggerated expressions and body language of the characters add to the amusing nature of the scene, making it a delightful and relatable moment that resonates with audiences even today. The illustration is a testament to Bateman's ability to capture the human condition in all its quirks and foibles, and serves as a reminder that even the most elegant of events can be derailed by the smallest of oversights. This charming and humorous image is a must-have for any collection of vintage illustrations or for those who appreciate the wit and whimsy of H.M. Bateman's work.
