EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Phil May sketch captures the whimsical humor and satirical wit for which the artist was renowned. Created in the early 20th century as part of a set issued by Fry's Chocolates, this colour litho print showcases May's talent for capturing everyday scenes with a comedic twist. In this particular image, we see a young boy fishing with his father, both figures rendered in May's signature style that blends realism with exaggerated features for comic effect. The humpback whale looming in the background adds an element of surprise and absurdity to the scene, highlighting May's ability to inject humor into even the most mundane activities. The vibrant colours used in this print bring out the playful nature of the composition, enhancing its appeal to viewers of all ages. The interaction between father and son is heartwarming and relatable, making this artwork not only visually striking but also emotionally resonant. Overall, this Phil May sketch is a delightful example of his talent as a satirical cartoonist and illustrator. It reminds us of the joy found in simple moments shared between family members and encourages us to find humor in life's everyday adventures.
