The Legitimate (Litho)
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Phil May captures a delightful moment of humor and wit. In this comic illustration, May showcases his exceptional talent for amusing drawings that bring laughter to the viewer's face. The scene takes place at the Royal Albert Hall during an opera performance featuring the renowned singer Adelina Patti. However, amidst the grandeur of the event, May introduces us to a comical twist. We see Jacko, a character known for his mischievous nature, causing chaos in his attempt to transport goods through the hall. May cleverly juxtaposes high culture with everyday business enterprises as he satirizes corporations and free trade. The artist's sharp commentary on these topics adds depth to what initially appears as a simple humorous drawing. This print is part of "The Phil May Album" collected by Augustus M Moore in 1900. It exemplifies May's unique style and ability to capture moments filled with both amusement and social critique. With its lively characters and playful narrative, "The Legitimate (Litho)" invites viewers into a world where art meets comedy. Bridgeman Images has preserved this gem from Phil May's collection, allowing us to appreciate his contribution to comics and humor even today.
