EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and humorous colour litho print titled "What! Come home?" captures a scene from early 20th century England. The image depicts a woman on the telephone, with the caption suggesting that she is not likely to come home as long as she is in Houghton le Spring. This postcard from the era showcases a satirical drawing that reflects the light-hearted nature of communication during that time.
The artwork, part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into everyday life and social interactions in Britain during this period. The playful tone of the illustration invites viewers to imagine the conversation taking place between the woman on the phone and whoever is trying to persuade her to return home.
With its vibrant colours and witty dialogue, this print exemplifies the artistry and creativity of English School artists from the 20th century. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when conversations were had over landlines rather than smartphones, yet humor and wit still played an important role in human connection.
Overall, "What! Come home?" is not just a piece of art but also a snapshot of history that brings joy and laughter to those who appreciate its clever depiction of everyday life in early 20th century England.
