The Large and in Charge Lady of the Sea
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming comic postcard from the 20th century captures the playful spirit of a day at the beach. The image features a large woman in a bright red bathing suit and a sun hat, proudly paddling in the clear blue waters of the sea. Her ample figure is accentuated by the contrasting colors of her suit and the water, making for a visually striking scene. The humor in this postcard lies in the double entendre of the situation. The woman's size and her confident, almost regal, pose as she holds the paddle in the water could be interpreted as a subtle commentary on body positivity and self-assurance. Alternatively, the large size of the woman and the title of the postcard could be seen as a playful pun, with the "large" woman being the one in control of the "sea" - a body of water. The postcard also features a man in a striped shirt and shorts, who appears to be watching the woman from the shore with a bemused expression. His presence adds an element of intrigue and a hint of flirtation to the scene. This postcard is a delightful reminder of the simple joys of a seaside holiday and the lighthearted, humorous perspective that the British have long held towards body types and beach culture. The use of bold colors, exaggerated proportions, and clever wordplay make this a fun and enduring piece of comic art from the 20th century.
