Wheres the Streamline?
EDITORS COMMENTS
, a delightful and humorous illustration by the renowned British artist Lawson Wood, captures the playful antics of his beloved creation, Granpop the wily orang-utan. Set amidst the lush greenery of a tropical forest, Granpop nonchalantly sits in the branches of a tree, casually munching on a banana. The scene is filled with charming anthropomorphism as two little monkeys, full of excitement and curiosity, point out a passing tortoise to the oblivious ape. This particular cartoon, which first appeared in The Sketch in 1934, holds a special connection to the Motor Show at London's Olympia. The tortoise in question is labeled "Streamline," a reference to the then-emerging trend in automobile design. The juxtaposition of the sleek, modern concept of streamlined vehicles and the slow, traditional tortoise adds a layer of wit and humor to the illustration. Lawson Wood's masterful use of pen and ink brings the forest to life, with the vibrant greens of the foliage contrasting beautifully against the rich, warm tones of the apes and monkeys. The expressions on the faces of the monkeys are priceless, as they eagerly try to grab Granpop's attention, while he remains blissfully unaware of their efforts. This charming illustration is not only a testament to Wood's extraordinary artistic talent but also a glimpse into the past, offering a whimsical look at the world of 1930s popular culture. With its funny, cute, and endearing characters, "Wheres the Streamline?" continues to delight and entertain viewers, leaving us with a sense of nostalgia and wonder.
