EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "I know what you want but you ain't going to get it" by English School, captures the essence of a bygone era with its vintage charm. This colour litho, part of a private collection, showcases a postcard from the early 20th century that exudes both humour and wit. In this amusing scene, an elderly man is depicted sitting on a bench, surrounded by symbols of wealth and youth. Holding a parasol and peering askance at the viewer, he seems to be in deep contemplation. The comical twist lies in his confident assertion that he knows exactly what others desire but playfully denies them their wishes. This image touches upon themes such as age, relations between sexes, flirtation, and even sexual harassment - all cleverly conveyed through humor. It invites us to reflect on societal norms surrounding relationships while simultaneously entertaining us with its light-hearted approach. With its vibrant colors and attention to detail, this postcard offers an intriguing glimpse into the past. Its timeless appeal reminds us that despite changing times and evolving social dynamics, human desires remain constant throughout history. "I know what you want but you ain't going to get it" is not just a mere photograph; it's an artistic representation that sparks curiosity and leaves room for interpretation.
