EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, capturing a humorous scene in an English restaurant. The illustration by M. E. , an unknown artist of that era, portrays three men engaged in a comical situation. The central figure, seated and clearly intoxicated, offers a sarcastic apology to the man observing himself in the mirror. What is he apologizing for? Well, it seems our drunken friend couldn't resist stealing his companion's share of chicken. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of British humor with its clever irony and caricature-like depiction. It transports us to a time when alcoholism was often portrayed lightheartedly in popular culture. Leonard de Selva skillfully photographed this intriguing piece from a private collection, ensuring its preservation for generations to come. Through his lens, we can appreciate every detail and nuance of this amusing scene. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of satire and how it continues to entertain audiences across centuries and cultures. This snapshot into history serves as both entertainment and historical documentation—a testament to the enduring power of art.
