EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1916 cartoon print depicts a brave couple seeking shelter from a violent squall under the only available refuge - a leafless tree. The wind relentlessly whips up her skirts, giving him an unexpected yet revealing view of her legs. The natural phenomena of the wind and rain are portrayed in all their raw power, with raindrops pelting down on the couple and the wind blowing his hat off. The man, with a protective arm around his companion, shields her from the harsh elements as they huddle together for comfort and warmth. The bond between the two friends is palpable, as they find solace in each other during this unexpected and unforgiving weather event. This charming yet weather-beaten image captures the essence of friendship and companionship during a time when the elements were a formidable force to be reckoned with. The black and white contrast of the cartoon adds to the historical charm, transporting us back to the 1910s and reminding us of a simpler time when the power of nature was both awe-inspiring and terrifying.
