EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "Local feature at the movie theatre, Yapps Crossing" by John B. Gruelle takes us back to the early 20th century in America. The artwork, created for Judges Magazine in 1915, is a satirical depiction of a small town's cinema experience. In this humorous scene, men and women eagerly gather outside the movie theater on Yapps Crossing's main street. The artist skillfully captures the excitement and anticipation as people line up to catch a glimpse of their favorite film stars on the big screen. The art deco style prevalent during that era is evident in Gruelle's intricate detailing and bold lines. This satirical cartoon showcases his ability to blend comedy with social commentary, providing viewers with an amusing yet thought-provoking image. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness not only the entertainment value of motion pictures but also their impact on society. It serves as a reminder of how movies have always been an integral part of our cultural history and continue to shape our lives today. This lithograph print from Bridgeman Images offers a fascinating glimpse into early 20th-century America through its artistic representation of cinema culture at Yapps Crossing.
