EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of our daily struggle to rise and shine. The image, taken by Reg Carter in the early 20th century, showcases a comical scene filled with humor and historical charm. In this postcard-turned-artwork, we find ourselves immersed in a bedroom setting where sleep reigns supreme. A grand bed adorned with luxurious bedding and upholstered furnishings takes center stage. However, it is not the opulence of the room that steals our attention; rather, it is the cleverly placed alarm clock on the bedside table. As we delve deeper into this amusing snapshot of life's little struggles, we witness a relatable scenario unfold before us. The protagonist lies peacefully asleep while time ticks away relentlessly. The caption reminds us that although many may be called to wake up from their slumber, only a select few manage to conquer their cozy haven and face the day ahead. This whimsical artwork serves as an entertaining reminder of our shared experiences when it comes to waking up each morning. It invites us to embrace laughter and lightheartedness amidst life's challenges while appreciating Reg Carter's artistic talent for capturing such relatable moments in history.
