EDITORS COMMENTS
B the Bumptious, a whimsical portrayal of an arrogant and conceited character from the early 20th century, captured in this print by renowned artist John Hassall. The image is part of 'An A. B. C. of Everyday People, ' a delightful children's book published by Dean & Son Limited in London, 1903. In this peculiar portrait, we see a dapper British gentleman standing on stage, dressed in an eccentric grey coat and jacket combination. His flamboyant attire reflects his pompous nature as he exudes an air of self-importance. With his nose held high and a smug expression on his face, he epitomizes vanity and arrogance. Hassall's artistic style brings out the vibrant colors and quirky details that make this character come to life. The letter 'B' prominently displayed beside him signifies his name or perhaps serves as a reminder of his bumptious personality. This print not only showcases Hassall's talent but also captures the essence of daily life during that era with its subtle humor and bizarre charm. It offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of literature and artistry prevalent at the turn of the century. As we admire this intriguing piece, it reminds us to appreciate both the creativity behind such works and their ability to transport us back in time.
