The Reluctant Farmer
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Classic Comic Postcard from the 20th Century This charming comic postcard, dated back to the 20th century, captures the essence of rural life with a touch of humor. The image presents a man in a quintessential farmer's outfit, complete with a straw hat, suspenders, and a plaid shirt, standing uneasily before a cow. The cow, with its udders prominently displayed, seems to be looking at him with a mixture of curiosity and impatience. The man, on the other hand, is shown sitting on a simple stool, holding an empty bucket or pail, with a look of reluctance and trepidation on his face. His body language speaks volumes about his discomfort and apparent lack of experience in milking a cow. The expression on his face is priceless - a perfect blend of embarrassment and determination. The background of the postcard is a lush green field, with a few trees and a farmhouse in the distance. The sun is setting, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene. The overall effect is one of tranquility and simplicity, with a hint of the challenges and hardships that come with farming. This comic postcard is a delightful reminder of a bygone era, when life was simpler, and humor was found in the everyday struggles of rural life. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of the British sense of humor, as exemplified by the works of artists like Donald McGill, who created similar comic postcards during the 20th century. Whether you're a fan of rural life, farming, or just looking for a light-hearted moment, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to your face.
