EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Bored with Showgirls," is a historical snapshot from 1939, captured by an unidentified photographer and now available through Mary Evans Picture Library. The photograph features a man, with a thoughtful expression on his face, sitting at a table in a dimly lit room. In front of him lies an empty plate, the remnants of a meal once savored. Yet, it is not the meal that holds his attention, but rather the plate itself, which he seems to examine with a renewed sense of excitement. The contrast between the man's bored expression and the title of the photograph is intriguing. The caption, "To tell you the truth, these days I'm more excited by a plate of oysters than by a girl's thighs," adds another layer of depth to the image. This quote suggests that the man has grown weary of the superficial allure of showgirls and has found a new appreciation for the simple pleasures in life, such as a plate of oysters. The historical context of this photograph is also noteworthy. The 1930s were a time of great change and upheaval, with the rise of mass media and the glamorization of Hollywood. Showgirls were a common sight in cabarets and nightclubs, and their allure was a source of fascination for many. Yet, this photograph challenges the notion that material possessions and superficial beauty are the keys to happiness. Instead, it suggests that true excitement and joy can be found in the simple things in life, such as a plate of oysters. Overall, "Bored with Showgirls" is a thought-provoking image that invites us to reflect on the values and priorities of the past and the present. It reminds us that sometimes, the most exciting things in life are the ones that are right in front of us, if only we take the time to appreciate them.
