EDITORS COMMENTS
Caught in a moment of repose, the head of the household slumbers peacefully in his chair, surrounded by the comforts of home. A mischievous cat or two (or three?) seem to be watching over him with amusement, as if waiting for their cue to pounce on an unsuspecting toe or snuggle up beside their snoozing master. The chromolithograph print captures the scene with warm, rich tones and intricate details, inviting us into this intimate domestic setting.
The humor is palpable in this satirical drawing, poking fun at the notion that even those who rule the roost can't resist a good nap. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of warmth and contentment, making it easy to imagine ourselves slipping into that same cozy chair and drifting off into dreamland. This charming postcard from early 20th century Europe offers a glimpse into daily life during that era and serves as a delightful reminder that even in times past, people loved to laugh at themselves.
