Shannon in 1902, this image offers a glimpse into the character and charisma of May, whose work continues to resonate with audiences more than a century later. Born in London, May began his career as a freelance artist and cartoonist, contributing to various publications such as Punch, Judy, and Fun.

May's distinctive style, characterized by his intricate line work and keen observation, set him apart from his contemporaries.
