EDITORS COMMENTS
The comical and absurd nature of this early 20th-century postcard print, titled "A woman too fat for the donkey ride" is captured in vibrant color lithography. The image depicts a round and large lady, adorned with a headscarf and bonnet, attempting to mount a donkey at the seaside. As she struggles to fit on the poor animal's back, her striped stockings add an extra touch of humor to the scene. Surrounded by men who seem amused by her predicament, this satirical drawing pokes fun at societal expectations of feminine beauty during that era. The attendant overseeing the donkey rides appears both bemused and sympathetic towards the overweight woman's struggle. This caricature-like illustration serves as scathing satire on various levels - from mocking holidaymakers' attempts at leisurely activities to challenging conventional notions of attractiveness. It also highlights how women were often subjected to unrealistic standards imposed upon them. The captioned postcard captures a moment frozen in time when beach vacations were filled with laughter and light-heartedness. Its playful tone invites viewers into a world where animals become unwitting participants in human follies. With its blend of wit and charm, this vintage print offers us not only amusement but also insight into cultural attitudes towards body image during that period. It reminds us that even amidst changing times, humor remains timeless across generations.
