EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and humorous colour litho print captures a comical moment during a medical examination in the early 20th century. The artwork, created by Ernest Noble, depicts a doctor playfully asking a naked man to cough while conducting his examination. The scene is filled with light-heartedness and entertainment as the doctor's mischievous expression suggests he may be enjoying this unconventional method of diagnosis. The naked man appears slightly embarrassed yet amused by the situation, adding to the overall humor of the image. This postcard from a private collection offers us a glimpse into an era where medical examinations were approached with both seriousness and lightheartedness. It reminds us that even in professional settings, there is room for laughter and fun. The historical significance of this artwork lies not only in its portrayal of medical practices but also in its representation of societal attitudes towards nudity and humor during that time period. It serves as an entertaining reminder that even serious matters can be approached with levity. Overall, this colourful litho print captures a moment that is both amusing and intriguing, inviting viewers to reflect on how medicine has evolved over time while appreciating the timeless appeal of comedy within art.
