EDITORS COMMENTS
Stern Reproof" is a humorous illustration by Lawson Wood, created in 1957, that playfully depicts Gran'pop the orangutan in a surprising role as a delivery driver. The scene is set in the 20th century, with Wood's signature whimsical style bringing mischief and humor to the historical moment. Gran'pop, an orangutan with a stern expression and a red cap, is seated behind the wheel of a delivery truck. He wears a striped shirt and holds a clipboard in one hand, while the other hand is raised as if ready to deliver a stern reproof. A group of naughty thieves, caught in the act of stealing fruit from a nearby tree, are scattered around the scene, looking up in surprise and fear at the approaching orangutan. The illustration is filled with slapstick humor and a touch of the absurd, as the traditional roles of humans and animals are reversed. Gran'pop, an animal, is the one delivering goods and dispensing discipline, while the humans are the ones attempting to steal fruit. Wood's use of exaggerated expressions and body language adds to the comedic effect, making "Stern Reproof" a delightful addition to any collection of humorous historical illustrations. The illustration is a testament to Wood's talent for creating imaginative and entertaining scenes that capture the spirit of the past. It is a reminder that even in the most unexpected circumstances, humor and mischief can be found, and that the world is full of surprises. Wood's "Stern Reproof" is a timeless piece of art that continues to bring joy and amusement to viewers, inviting us to imagine a world where animals and humans swap roles and the ordinary becomes extraordinary. This historical illustration is a must-have for anyone who appreciates the power of humor and the beauty of the past.
