EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Hands off!" showcases a remarkable colour litho artwork by the English School from the 20th century. The image, part of a private collection, features an intriguing allegory that humorously depicts the British lion defending the mighty Empire against a menacing German eagle. This early 20th-century postcard serves as both political propaganda and comic relief. The composition is filled with elements that evoke patriotism and amusement. The globe symbolizes the vast reach of the British Empire, while the lion stands tall in its role as protector. With its amusing expression, this courageous feline exudes defiance and determination to safeguard Britain's interests. The juxtaposition of these two national animals adds depth to this piece. While the eagle represents Germany's threatening presence, it also highlights tensions between nations during that era. The artist skillfully combines humour and satire to create an entertaining commentary on politics and nationalism. This postcard not only captures historical significance but also showcases artistic brilliance through its use of vivid colours and attention to detail. It serves as a reminder of Britain's strength during challenging times while providing viewers with a glimpse into popular culture at that time. "Hands off!" is more than just an image; it encapsulates British pride, wit, and resilience in one frame. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to provoke thought while offering light-hearted entertainment for all who appreciate fine art prints like this one from Bridgeman Images.
