EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and comical print titled "Chef sneezing into the soup" captures a hilarious moment in culinary history. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the early 20th century, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. Depicting a chef with a red nose and rosy cheeks, this postcard-sized artwork showcases the mischievous side of kitchen life. The chef's exaggerated sneeze sends droplets flying into the pot of soup he is preparing, adding an unexpected twist to mealtime. The image humorously highlights the challenges faced by cooks during that era, including illness and hygiene concerns. The overweight chef depicted in this artwork adds another layer of amusement to the scene. His stoutness emphasizes both his love for food and perhaps his lack of self-control when it comes to indulging in culinary delights. This colourful illustration not only entertains but also provides insight into historical attitudes towards health and medicine. It playfully references Asklepios, the Greek god associated with healing, suggesting that laughter can be good medicine even in times of illness. Overall, this charming postcard from the early 20th century offers a delightful glimpse into kitchen life while showcasing artistic talent through its detailed lithography technique.
