EDITORS COMMENTS
Cook Doesn't Feel Like It" is a humorous and iconic illustration by the renowned British artist, H.M. Bateman. Created in 1932, this print depicts a cook in a relaxed pose, reflecting on the decision he has made not to prepare dinner. Bateman's groundbreaking style, characterized by its efficiency and boldness, was a brilliant reflection of the social faux-pas and nuances of the 20th century. Born in 1887, Bateman was a popular artist who regularly contributed to prestigious publications such as The Sketch, The Tatler, and The Bystander. His work, which often poked fun at the social norms and blunders of the time, was both import and influential. This particular illustration, with its witty commentary on the cook's lack of motivation, is a testament to Bateman's ability to capture the essence of the period. The image shows the cook, with a pipe in hand and a contented expression on his face, as he gazes out of the window. The scene is set in a kitchen, with pots and pans scattered about and a table laden with dishes. The cook's decision not to prepare dinner, a seemingly simple act, is depicted in a way that resonated with the audience of the time, and continues to do so today. Bateman's work, with its historical significance and enduring appeal, is a valuable addition to any collection. This print, "Cook Doesn't Feel Like It," is a prime example of his efficient and bold style, and a reminder of the social commentary and humor that defined the early 20th century. January 7, 1932, marked the creation of this timeless piece, which continues to be a source of amusement and reflection for art lovers and historians alike. Bateman's work, with its insightful commentary on the human condition, is a brilliant reflection of the period and a testament to the power of art to entertain and enlighten.
