EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing and somewhat controversial colour lithograph titled "There's a woman at the bottom of it" captures a moment of discipline and humor from the early 20th century. The image depicts a woman smacking a child, with a mischievous cat looking on in the background.
The postcard-style artwork is filled with satirical elements, showcasing the punishment being meted out to the young boy by the stern-looking woman. The scene is both humorous and slightly unsettling, as it plays on themes of authority, correction, and domestic life.
The use of vibrant colours adds to the overall impact of the print, drawing attention to the central figures and their actions. The composition is cleverly arranged to focus on the interaction between the characters, creating a sense of tension and drama within this seemingly ordinary household setting.
Overall, this print offers a glimpse into an era where social norms around discipline and humor were quite different from today. It serves as both a reflection of its time period and as an amusing piece that invites viewers to ponder its deeper meanings.
