EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "A Pleasing Phantasy" by the renowned British artist Adam, showcases the allure and romance of the Roaring Twenties as embodied in the figure of the mischievous god of love, Cupid. Dating back to 1918, during the tumultuous era of the First World War, this print offers a striking contrast to the harsh realities of the time. Cupid, with his characteristic bow and arrow, aims at a young woman who playfully lifts her skirt to reveal her stockinged legs. The woman's fashionable attire, featuring a short skirt that had become popular during the 1920s, emphasizes the newfound freedom and modernity of the era. The length of the skirt, once considered scandalous, was a symbol of liberation for women and a source of fascination for men. The woman's stockings, peeking out from beneath her skirt, add to the allure and sensuality of the scene. The combination of the woman's revealing yet demure pose, along with Cupid's seductive gaze, creates an irresistible and pleasing phantasy. This print, with its intricate details and rich colors, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the fashion, romance, and spirit of the 1920s. The image, with its timeless appeal, continues to captivate and inspire, reminding us of the enduring power of love and the allure of the past.
