What About a Rest, I'm Freezing
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Chillingly Humorous Moment in an Artist's Studio, 1939 Amidst the vibrant hues and playful compositions of sunshine holidays posters, a moment of unexpected reality unfolds. In this photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online, an artist's model, clad in a light summery dress, requests a respite from her pose as she feels the chill of the studio air. The irony of her situation is not lost on us, as the scene around her is filled with the trappings of a tropical paradise. The artist, with a palette in hand and an easel adorned with a half-finished painting, looks up from his work, a quizzical expression on his face. A furnace or stove, an essential element for maintaining a warm working environment, sits in the background, its fire long since extinguished, leaving the studio cold and uninviting. The model, her breath visible in the frosty air, looks longingly towards the fire, her tired expression a testament to the hours spent holding poses in the name of art. Snowflakes gently fall outside the studio window, blanketing the scene in a winter wonderland, a stark contrast to the sunny holiday imagery that graces the posters that surround her. The scene is a humorous reminder of the often unglamorous realities of commercial art and the dedication required to bring these whimsical vacation fantasies to life. This photograph, taken in 1939, offers a glimpse into the world of artists, models, and poster design, a world where the pursuit of beauty and the demands of commerce intertwine, creating a rich tapestry of creativity and resilience.
