EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "An after-dinner speech in ye olden time (and any other time)" takes us back to a bygone era, offering a humorous glimpse into the world of post-meal entertainment. Created by Charles Harrison, this print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in the book "A Humorous History of England" written and illustrated by C. Harrison in 1920. The scene depicted showcases an after-dinner speech being delivered by a king, surrounded by his courtiers and distinguished guests. However, what makes this image truly amusing is the relatable reactions of those present. Some are visibly bored, struggling to stay awake as they yawn or even doze off completely! The artist's clever portrayal captures the universal experience of enduring lengthy speeches that fail to captivate their audience. With its delightful blend of history and humor, this artwork transports viewers back in time while reminding us that some things never change – like our tendency to become restless during tedious speeches! Whether you appreciate British culture or simply enjoy witty illustrations, this lithograph offers both amusement and insight into social gatherings throughout history.
