EDITORS COMMENTS
Puck Magazine, January 25, 1911 This illustration, titled "An Old Acquaintance," was published in Puck Magazine on January 25, 1911. The image depicts a delightful underwater scene where two mermaids engage in a lively conversation, their long, flowing hair cascading behind them. Their animated expressions suggest that they are discussing a matter of great importance. The focus of their conversation, however, is a third mermaid who is seen flirting with a man on an ocean liner, visible in the background. The man, oblivious to the mermaid's true identity, seems to be thoroughly charmed by her human guise. The two observing mermaids exchange knowing glances, their amusement evident in their expressions. The illustration is a testament to the playful and whimsical nature of Puck Magazine, which was known for its satirical and humorous take on current events. This particular piece, with its fantastical elements and clever commentary on human behavior, would have provided a delightful respite for readers during the early 1900s. The artist's skillful use of color and detail brings the underwater world to life, making it an enchanting and intriguing sight for the viewer. The image is a charming reminder of the power of storytelling and the enduring appeal of mermaid folklore.
