EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Further forms of an art that demands the unusual" captures a moment in time during the 1920s. Taken by an English photographer and now part of a private collection, this image showcases the intersection between trade, history, and commerce. The photo depicts a fascinating window display filled with various unconventional elements. A majestic swan gracefully lays on top of a pen while a daring stuntman floats above in a captive balloon against the backdrop of the sky. The smoke from his writing creates an intriguing announcement that adds to the modern metropolitan life portrayed in this scene. Notably, this artwork was originally created as an illustration for Harmsworth's Business Encyclopedia and Commercial Educator in 1926. It reflects the vibrant advertising culture of its time, with references to summer programs at theaters like Moss Empires Ltd. , daily mail resorts, and pageants. With its clever composition and attention-grabbing details, this photograph transports us back to the roaring twenties when creativity knew no bounds. It serves as both a historical document capturing early twentieth-century commercial practices and as an artistic expression demanding attention through its unusual presentation. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, it reminds us how art can transcend boundaries and challenge our perception of what is possible within business realms.
