EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and humorous colour lithograph print by Phil May captures the essence of his satirical wit and keen observation of human behavior. The sketch, part of a series originally issued by Fry's Chocolates in the early 20th century, showcases May's talent for creating comical scenes that poke fun at societal norms.
In this particular artwork, we see a church setting with a preacher delivering a sermon to his congregation. However, instead of focusing on the religious message being imparted, May cleverly highlights the absurdity and humor found in everyday life. The exaggerated expressions and gestures of the characters add to the comedic effect, making this piece both entertaining and thought-provoking.
May's ability to capture human folly with such precision is what sets him apart as a master satirist. His work transcends time and continues to resonate with audiences today, reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously and to find joy in life's quirks.
This delightful Phil May sketch is sure to bring a smile to your face every time you gaze upon it, making it a perfect addition to any art collection or living space.
