The Woman Who Spent 10 Hours in Woolworths
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a humorous and iconic illustration by the renowned British artist H.M. Bateman, created in 1928. Bateman, known for his efficient and bold style, regularly contributed to popular magazines such as The Sketch, The Tatler, and The Bystander. In this illustration, Bateman masterfully depicts a social faux-pas of the time, capturing the essence of the period with his brilliant and witty art. The scene shows a determined woman, her face etched with exhaustion, surrounded by an empty Woolworth store. She sits on a pile of shopping bags, having spent an astounding 10 hours in the store. Bateman's groundbreaking illustration pokes fun at the idea of a spendaholic, a concept that would become increasingly relevant in the consumer-driven culture of the 1920s. The illustration is a reflection of the era's social norms and the allure of low-cost goods. Woolworths, with its reputation for affordable items, was a popular destination for shoppers. Bateman's work continues to be a brilliant and entertaining reflection of the period, offering a glimpse into the past and the quirks of human behavior. This print, with its humorous take on a woman's shopping obsession, is a must-have for anyone interested in social history, art, or the culture of the 1920s.
