EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled ""I am ever so sorry, but Mrs Tweedie never touches soups" (litho)" captures a satirical drawing by Pont (Graham Laidler) from 1939. This comic illustration was created for the book "The British at Home" and depicts a humorous scene that reflects British culture and character types. In the image, we see Mrs Tweedie, a fictional character known for her peculiar preferences, refusing to touch soups. The artist's wit shines through as he humorously exaggerates this idiosyncrasy with great detail and expression. The satirical cartoon not only entertains but also offers scathing social commentary on societal norms of the time. This artwork is part of a private collection and showcases Pont's talent in creating amusing cartoons that resonate with audiences even today. His caricatures are renowned for their cleverness and ability to capture human quirks in an entertaining manner. Through this piece, Pont highlights the absurdity of certain behaviors while poking fun at British society during his era. This satirical drawing serves as both a reflection of history and an enduring source of amusement. As we admire this lithograph by Pont, we are reminded of the power of art to entertain us while shedding light on our own idiosyncrasies and cultural nuances.
