EDITORS COMMENTS
The Unemployed (colour litho) captures the social and political commentary of early 20th century England through a humorous lens. This postcard, signed by Elley (?), depicts a scene that is both amusing and critical of the state of unemployment in the country. In this comical print, we see a group of unemployed individuals engaging in various activities to pass their time. Some are seen digging holes on the road, while others appear to be skiving or picketing. The artist cleverly portrays the laziness and lack of motivation often associated with unemployment. The image also highlights the harsh reality faced by those without work during this period. The mention of workhouses suggests that some may have resorted to seeking shelter and support from these institutions due to their inability to find employment. While providing entertainment through its witty portrayal, 'The Unemployed' serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by many during an era marked by economic instability. It offers a satirical critique on societal attitudes towards labor and questions the effectiveness of government policies in addressing unemployment. This colour lithograph not only showcases English humor but also reflects broader European themes related to labor, politics, and social issues prevalent at that time.
