EDITORS COMMENTS
In this self-portrait, Phil May, a renowned English artist and caricaturist of the late 19th century, showcases his artistic prowess in a charming doodle adorning the wall of the Artists Room at Paganis Restaurant in Great Portland Street, London. Dating back to the 1890s, this quaint establishment was a popular gathering place for artists and intellectuals, boasting an intimate Artists Room adorned with an eclectic collection of drawings, caricatures, cartoons, sketches, and autographs. May's self-portrait, with its playful and whimsical style, is a testament to the creative spirit that thrived within the walls of Paganis Restaurant. The artist's signature, boldly inscribed below the image, adds an air of authenticity and historical significance to the work. The doodles and graffiti covering the panel around May's self-portrait further enhance the room's character, offering a glimpse into the minds of the artistic luminaries who frequented this beloved establishment. May's self-portrait, along with the other works adorning the Artists Room, serves as a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of London during the late Victorian era. The room's walls, now a cherished piece of history, bear the marks of a bygone era, inviting us to reflect on the creative energy and camaraderie that once flourished within its confines. In this photograph, we are granted a rare glimpse into the past, a moment frozen in time that transports us to a world where art, creativity, and community intertwined in the most unexpected of places – the Artists Room at Paganis Restaurant.
