Christmas Dinner for Cannibals - A Comic Postcard from the Early 20th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This vibrant and humorous colour lithograph captures a unique scene that is sure to raise eyebrows and tickle funny bones. Created by an anonymous English artist in the early 20th century, this comic postcard explores a food-related theme with a twist. Set on an idyllic island surrounded by calm waters, we see a lively gathering of cannibals eagerly awaiting their Christmas feast. The image showcases an array of characters, each armed with battleaxes and sporting mischievous grins. With their culinary intentions clear, they are ready to indulge in what appears to be quite an unconventional holiday tradition. The artist's playful imagination shines through as he depicts this bizarre scenario with vivid colours and intricate details. From the bustling tugboat transporting these festive diners to the island, to the comical expressions on their faces as they prepare for their mealtime adventure - every element adds to the whimsy of this artwork. While undoubtedly tongue-in-cheek, this illustration also offers us a glimpse into historical aspects such as missionary missions and cultural practices of isolated islands. It serves as a reminder that art can both entertain and educate simultaneously. With its rich history, clever humor, and captivating imagery, "Christmas Dinner for Cannibals" is truly one-of-a-kind artwork that continues to intrigue viewers even today.
