EDITORS COMMENTS
Dream of the Rarebit Fiend: Bucking Automobile" is a captivating and humorous pen and ink drawing by the renowned American artist, Winsor McCay, created in 1907. This antique artwork is a panel from McCay's popular comic strip series, "Dream of the Rarebit Fiend," which was known for its fantastical and surreal depictions of nightmares. In this particular panel, McCay masterfully portrays a chaotic and comical scene of a man being pursued by a bucking automobile. The man, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, clings to the hood of the car as it wildly bounces and bucks, its wheels spinning in the air. The background is filled with a chaotic array of trees, houses, and other objects, adding to the sense of motion and excitement. The artwork is executed in pen and black ink and brush, with graphite underdrawings and printed overlays on paperboard. The use of contrasting white and black tones adds depth and texture to the image, making it a stunning example of McCay's graphic artistry. This panel is a fascinating glimpse into the past, depicting the early days of automobile transportation in America. It is also a testament to McCay's unique ability to blend humor and art in a way that continues to captivate audiences today. This artwork is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of American art, comic strips, or the cultural significance of the automobile in the early 20th century. This artwork is part of the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a popular attraction for visitors to the gallery. It is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the United States and the enduring appeal of Winsor McCay's work.
