Our Mayor (mare) and Corporation
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful colour litho print that captures the whimsical charm of early 20th-century postcards. The image showcases a humorous caricature of a rotund mayor, dressed in an elaborate costume, riding atop a majestic horse. With his red nose and oversized boots, the mayor exudes an amusing presence that immediately brings a smile to one's face. The satirical drawing cleverly combines elements of satire and cartooning to create a light-hearted commentary on political figures. The juxtaposition of the mayor's comical appearance with the regal stature of his steed adds to the overall amusement factor. In this playful scene, several other animals can be seen in the background, including racehorses, ponies, and even farm animals like shire horses and stallions. This inclusion further enhances the satirical nature of the artwork by poking fun at various aspects of society. The artist's skillful execution is evident in every detail - from capturing each animal's unique characteristics to infusing movement into their poses. It is no wonder why this postcard became such a popular choice for those seeking lighthearted entertainment during its time. This particular print is part of a private collection and serves as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact. Its timeless appeal continues to resonate with viewers today, reminding us all not to take ourselves too seriously while appreciating art's ability to bring joy into our lives.
