EDITORS COMMENTS
In this humorous and intricately detailed caricature by George Ernest Studdy, titled "Sensations We Particularly Dislike and VI.--The Call me early, mother dear feeling," we are transported to the chaotic world of an Edwardian-era bedroom. The scene is filled with a cacophony of sensations that are sure to rouse even the deepest of slumbers. At the center of the image, a groggy figure lies in bed, his eyes still closed in defiance of the harsh reality of the morning. An alarm clock, with its hands frantically ticking away, hovers above his head, its shrill ringing adding to the discomfort. The steam from a teapot on the bedside table rises menacingly, threatening to engulf the hapless figure. But the most unwelcome intrusion comes from the fist of an unseen hand, which bangs relentlessly on a pan, creating a clamor that is sure to echo through the house. The expression on the man's face speaks volumes - a mixture of annoyance, frustration, and a desperate plea for just a few more minutes of sleep. Studdy's masterful use of line and shading brings this chaotic scene to life, capturing the essence of the sensations that we all too well know and love to hate. Created in 1911, this caricature is a delightful glimpse into the past, offering a humorous take on the trials and tribulations of waking up in the early 20th century.
