EDITORS COMMENTS
"A Precocious Moment: A Scene on a Bus by Alfred Bestall (1892-1986) This charming and humorous illustration by Alfred Bestall captures a moment of frustration and playful banter between a mother and her young son on a bus. The scene, set in the 1920s, shows the mother trying to keep her composure as her son, with a mischievous grin, asks, "Mother, aren't we ever going to get out of this damned bus?" The mother, with a stern expression, replies, "Hush, child! How many times must I tell you not to use that word?" Bestall's talent for capturing the essence of everyday life is evident in this illustration. The mother's weary expression and the boy's impish grin convey the familiar dynamic between a parent and a precocious child. The use of color and detail in the illustration adds to its historical significance, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. Before creating the beloved Rupert Bear for thirty years, Bestall produced more than forty color illustrations for The Tatler. His work for the magazine showcased his versatility as an artist, ranging from humorous line drawings and cartoon sketches to more formal illustrations. This illustration, with its witty dialogue and vivid colors, is a testament to Bestall's ability to bring everyday life to life with his art." Alfred Bestall's illustration, "A Scene on a Bus," is a delightful snapshot of a moment in time, showcasing the artist's talent for capturing the humor and nuances of everyday life. This image, produced in 1928, is a precious addition to any collection of historical illustrations and a reminder of the importance of preserving the past through art.
