EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical postcard print titled "Ma mither'll no gie me ony mair parritch" captures the essence of childhood mischief and humor in a satirical drawing by an English School artist from the 20th century. The scene depicts a young boy, dressed in traditional Scottish attire, looking forlorn as he sits at the table with an empty bowl and spoon in hand. His cap tilted to one side adds to his dejected appearance, while his clothes suggest a simpler time long gone.
The title of the piece hints at a mischievous act that has led to this sad state of affairs - perhaps the boy's mother refusing to give him any more porridge due to some playful antics. The humor and playfulness of the image are evident in every detail, from the exaggerated expression on the boy's face to the comically oversized spoon he holds.
Through this charming postcard print, we are transported back in time to an era where simple joys and innocent pranks were enough to bring laughter and joy. It serves as a reminder of our own childhood memories and evokes feelings of nostalgia for days gone by. This delightful artwork is sure to bring a smile to anyone who views it, capturing both the innocence and mischievousness of youth in one captivating image.
