EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous illustration by H. M. Bateman captures a moment of sheer panic and nonchalance in equal measure. The scene depicts a distressed man clinging for dear life to a seaside cliff, while his blase companion casually takes his photograph. The oblivious companion seems completely unfazed by the danger unfolding before him, as he focuses on capturing the perfect shot.
H. M. Bateman's bold and efficient style shines through in this piece, showcasing his talent for depicting social faux-pas with wit and charm. His work was groundbreaking for its time, offering a brilliant reflection of the period in which he lived.
The year is 1937, and this illustration serves as a snapshot of history - a reminder of the carefree attitudes that prevailed during that era. The contrast between the man desperately clinging to life and his indifferent companion creates a sense of tension and humor that is characteristic of Bateman's work.
As we look at this image, we are transported back in time to witness this comical yet perilous moment on the cliffs by the sea. It serves as a reminder to always be mindful of our surroundings, even when caught up in capturing memories with our cameras.
