The British Character, Predilection for Week-End Cottages
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a satirical lithograph by Pont (Graham Laidler) that perfectly captures the essence of British culture. This humorous and entertaining comic print showcases the quintessential British love for week-end cottages. The image depicts a group of caricatured characters, each representing a different type of Briton, indulging in their favorite pastime - escaping to their cozy cottages for the weekend. From the aristocrat to the working-class family, everyone seems to share this predilection for these idyllic countryside retreats. Pont's scathing satire highlights not only the obsession with week-end cottages but also pokes fun at various aspects of British society. The exaggerated features and comical expressions add an amusing touch to this satirical cartoon. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for "The British at Home" a book that delves into various facets of British life. It beautifully encapsulates how deeply ingrained this tradition is within the fabric of British culture. As we gaze upon this delightful print, we are reminded of Britain's rich history and its unique character. Whether it be seeking solace from bustling city life or simply enjoying nature's beauty, week-end cottages have become synonymous with relaxation and escape for generations of Britons. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Pont's collection, allowing us to appreciate his wit and talent while celebrating our shared appreciation for these charming country getaways
