A Run on the Bank
EDITORS COMMENTS
- This humorous comic postcard captures a playful moment in time, as a determined policeman chases a mischievous young boy at the river bank. The phrase "run on the bank" is often used in the context of a financial crisis, where people rush to withdraw their money from a failing institution. But in this light-hearted image, the term takes on a completely different meaning. The boy, oblivious to the serious notice warning against bathing, is seen joyfully frolicking in the water, with only his swim trunks on. As he splashes around, a long-armed policeman clutches at him, attempting to bring him to shore. The boy, in his attempt to escape, runs along the river bank, leaving a trail of water droplets in his wake. The historical context of this image adds an extra layer of intrigue. The use of photography lends an air of nostalgia, transporting us back to a simpler time. The policeman's stern expression and the boy's mischievous grin create a delightful contrast, making for a truly funny and memorable scene. Despite the apparent chaos, there is a sense of order and rule-following in the scene, as evidenced by the policeman's uniform and the "No Bathing" sign. The image plays with the meaning of the phrase "run on the bank," reminding us that sometimes, the most unexpected interpretations can bring the greatest joy. This charming postcard is a reminder that even in the most ordinary moments, there is room for humor and playfulness. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture the human spirit and bring a smile to our faces.
