EDITORS COMMENTS
Late Arrivals" is a classic cartoon by the renowned British satirical artist H.M. Bateman, published in 1924. The humorous illustration captures the frustration and annoyance experienced by early theatre-goers at the hands of latecomers. The scene takes place in a crowded auditorium, where an eager audience is seated, attentively waiting for the show to begin. In the foreground, a group of late arrivals, dressed in fashionable 1920s attire, are making their way to their seats, oblivious to the disruption they are causing. The early arrivals, seated behind them, are less than amused. One man is blocking the view of the stage with his hat, while another is glaring at the intruders, his arms folded in irritation. A woman in the front row is covering her eyes with her handkerchief, trying to shield herself from the distraction of the latecomers' loud laughter. Bateman's clever use of exaggerated expressions and body language adds to the humor and satire of the situation. The cartoon serves as a commentary on the selfishness and rudeness of late arrivals, who disrupt the enjoyment of others and disregard the social norms of the time. The image is a reminder of the importance of punctuality and consideration for others in social settings, a message that remains relevant today. With its witty observations and humorous depiction of human behavior, "Late Arrivals" continues to amuse and entertain audiences, making it a beloved piece of art from the 1920s.
