EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and amusing print captures the essence of a bygone era with its depiction of the phrase, "For the daytime, there is nothing like the good old-fashioned safeguard of shamming dead". Created by John Hassall, this colour lithograph showcases his talent for combining humour and animals in a delightful manner. The image originates from Walter Emanuel's book, The Zoo, published in 1904. It portrays an entertaining scene set within a zoological garden where several wildlife animals are showcased. Among them is a bear performing an act that has become synonymous with fashion trends and clothing styles - shamming dead. The black bear's playful antics add to the comic appeal of this artwork. Its youthful energy contrasts beautifully with the notion of old-fashioned safeguards. As viewers delve into this piece, they are transported to a time when such performances were considered fashionable entertainment. With its vivid colors and attention to detail, this print offers both amusement and insight into our fascination with wildlife. It serves as a reminder that even in today's fast-paced world, we can find joy in simple pleasures like observing animal behavior. This artwork from Bridgeman Images captures not only the spirit of yesteryears but also celebrates our enduring connection with nature's wonders.
