EDITORS COMMENTS
cries the oblivious crowd, unaware of what lies ahead. This vibrant colour lithograph by George Henry Thompson captures a moment of pure excitement and anticipation. The artwork, titled "Hurrah! Hurrah! criait la foule sans se douter de rien" is part of a private collection. The illustration was originally created for the book "Les Animaux au Jeux Olympiques" (Hachette c 1900), adding a touch of whimsy to the Olympic Games. In this humorous scene, anthropomorphic animals participate in athletic events, bringing joy and laughter to all who witness their antics. Thompson's skillful use of colours and intricate details brings each character to life. From the determined rabbit sprinting towards victory to the graceful gazelle leaping over hurdles, every animal exudes energy and enthusiasm. As we gaze upon this delightful print, we cannot help but be reminded that sometimes it is not about winning or losing but simply enjoying the journey. The crowd's exuberant cheers reflect their blissful ignorance of what awaits them – an amusing twist that adds another layer of amusement to this already entertaining scene. With its blend of humour, athleticism, and anthropomorphism, this artwork encapsulates the spirit of fun associated with sports and the Olympics. It serves as a reminder that even in moments where we are clueless about what lies ahead, embracing joy can make any experience worthwhile.
