Fake Noses Powder Strip Styled
EDITORS COMMENTS
Force of Habit" is a charming comic strip illustration by the talented D.L. Ghilchik, dating back to 1934. This historical print, numbered as strip #XX, showcases a delightful moment between a couple as they engage in an amusing holiday tradition. The scene is set in a cozy, dimly lit room, filled with the warm glow of Christmas decorations. The man, dressed in a smart suit and hat, holds up a selection of fake noses for his lady, who stands before a mirror, her eyes twinkling with excitement. She tries on one of the noses, a long, curved proboscis that transforms her face into an comical caricature. The lady then turns to her companion, who grins in approval, and reaches for a powder puff and a small container of powder. She carefully dabs the powder on her nose, blending it seamlessly with the fake appendage. The man chuckles and shakes his head, a knowing smile playing on his lips. The couple's playful interaction is captured in Ghilchik's intricate, comic-styled illustration. The lines and shading expertly convey the warmth and humor of the moment, while the muted colors add to the nostalgic feel. This print is a wonderful reminder of the simple pleasures and traditions that bring joy to our lives. "Force of Habit" is a testament to Ghilchik's artistic skill and his ability to capture the essence of human connection. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any collection of vintage illustrations, but also a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the traditions and customs of a bygone era.
