EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous postcard from the early 20th century captures a satirical drawing titled "Girl with a turnip head". The chromolitho print, signed by E Curtis, showcases the creativity and wit of English School artists during this period. The image depicts a young girl wearing a sombrero-like hat fashioned out of a turnip. Her bow and arrows suggest that she may be partaking in some playful mischief or imaginative adventure. Dressed in colorful summer clothes, she exudes an air of innocence and childlike wonder. The vibrant colors used in this artwork add to its charm and appeal. The artist's use of satire is evident through the exaggerated features and comical portrayal of the girl's turnip head. This satirical cartoon serves as social commentary on societal norms or perhaps simply aims to bring joy through its whimsical nature. As we delve into history through art, it becomes clear that humor has always played an essential role in human expression. This postcard offers us a glimpse into the past, reminding us that laughter transcends time and connects us across generations. This piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection invites us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such intricate prints as well as the lightheartedness they can bring to our lives.
