EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical print titled "Plain cook (colour litho)" captures the essence of early 20th-century humor. Created by English School artist E Chandler, this comic postcard on a food-related theme brings a touch of laughter to any space it adorns. The image portrays a plain cook, adorned in traditional servant attire, diligently working in the kitchen. With her toothy grin and mischievous eyes, she adds charm to an otherwise mundane task. The colors used in this lithograph are bold and lively, enhancing the jovial atmosphere of the scene. Intriguingly ugly yet captivatingly humorous, this artwork showcases the artist's ability to find beauty even in unconventional appearances. The exaggerated features - from her comically large nose to her wide-set eyeballs - add a delightful element of caricature. Beyond its comedic value, this piece also offers glimpses into historical domestic life. It sheds light on the roles and responsibilities of female workers during that era while showcasing their resilience and dedication. Whether you appreciate art history or simply enjoy a good laugh, "Plain cook (colour litho)" is sure to bring joy and amusement into your home or office space. This charming postcard serves as both an artistic expression and a reminder that sometimes it's okay not to take ourselves too seriously.
