EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Heath Robinson Drawing Room 2 of 4" takes us back to the year 1921, showcasing a truly remarkable and typically Heath Robinson design. In this whimsical scene, we find ourselves in a drawing room where a family is enjoying their afternoon tea without the need for any servants. Heath Robinson's inventive genius shines through as he ingeniously incorporates an intricate system of pulleys, levers, and machinery throughout the room. These contraptions allow the family members to effortlessly pour tea, serve cake, and even stoke the fire with just a few simple movements. Notably, even unexpected visitors like the passing Vicar can enter this extraordinary space without any hassle. By standing on a carefully placed vacuum pump strategically positioned at the entrance, he announces his arrival in an amusingly unconventional manner. The historical significance of this image lies not only in its portrayal of Heath Robinson's imaginative mind but also in capturing an era when household chores were being revolutionized by modern technology. This fascinating glimpse into history reminds us of how innovation has always played a pivotal role in shaping our daily lives. Credit for this incredible photograph must be given to Courtesy of the Estate of Mrs J. C. Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/ILN/Mary Evan's Prints Online.
