EDITORS COMMENTS
The vintage cartoon print "Illicitly Smoking, 1912" captures a humorous yet cautionary tale of a small schoolboy attempting to smoke a cigar and feeling ill in the process. The scene is set with two figures - the young boy struggling with the oversized cigar and an amiable policeman coming to his rescue. The officer takes pity on the boy's plight and finishes smoking the cigar for him, saving him from further discomfort.
This satirical drawing from ''Punch'', London in 1912 serves as a scathing satire on smoking addiction among youth during that era. The detailed artwork showcases elements such as a tobacco packet, bench, and other props that add authenticity to the setting of early twentieth-century England.
The expressions on both characters' faces tell a story of mischief, innocence, and ultimately relief as they navigate through this comical situation. The artist's skillful rendering brings out the humor in this scenario while also shedding light on societal attitudes towards smoking at that time.
"Illicitly Smoking, 1912" is not just a work of art but also a historical commentary on cultural norms and behaviors prevalent in the early 1900s. It serves as a reminder of how times have changed since then while still retaining its charm and relevance even today.
