EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing lithograph titled ""I am the manager": six-headed ogre receiving a customer complaint in a restaurant" we are transported to a fantastical scene where an imposing, six-headed ogre is confronted by an unhappy diner. The artwork, created by English School in the 20th century and part of a private collection, captures the essence of frustration and anger. The ogre, symbolizing power and dominance, sits at a table in what appears to be a bustling restaurant. His multiple heads convey his ability to oversee all aspects of his establishment simultaneously. However, despite his intimidating presence, he finds himself facing an irate customer who bravely voices their complaint. The artist's use of black and white adds depth to the illustration while emphasizing the contrasting emotions on display. The viewer can almost feel the tension between the two characters as they engage in this unexpected confrontation. This piece evokes themes such as pride and wrath from the seven deadly sins, highlighting human nature's complexities when faced with challenging situations. It also serves as a reminder that even those in positions of authority must face accountability for their actions. Overall, this lithograph offers us a glimpse into an imaginative world where mythical creatures coexist with everyday scenarios like dining out.
