EDITORS COMMENTS
This Art Deco sketch, titled "Embarrassing Moments," was created by the talented Fish in 1929. The illustration was featured in an advertisement for an unspecified theatrical production, showcasing the vibrant and carefree spirit of the Jazz Age. The image depicts a group of smartly dressed individuals, each experiencing an embarrassing moment, adding a touch of humor and relatability to the advertisement. The intricate details and bold lines of Fish's illustration are quintessential of the Art Deco style, which was all the rage during the 1920s. The use of geometric shapes, rich colors, and stylized figures are evident in the elegant dresses, sharp suits, and exaggerated expressions of the characters. The age of the illustration, with its programmatic context, transports us back to a time when society was captivated by the glamour and excitement of the theatre. The Embarrassing Moments advertisement was likely featured in a playbill or theatre program, further emphasizing the connection between the performing arts and the cultural zeitgeist of the era. Fish's skillful caricature of these embarrassing moments adds a playful and lighthearted touch to the advertisement, making it a delightful reminder of the unique charm and character of the 1920s.
