EDITORS COMMENTS
Centre Forward (colour litho) captures the hilarious essence of a 19th-century football match with its comical caricatures and uproarious crowd. This delightful print, housed in the National Football Museum in Manchester, UK, brings to life an era of playful satire and good-natured ridicule. In this whimsical scene, a rotund spectator bursts into laughter as he watches a rather plump centre forward attempt to run across the pitch. The exaggerated proportions and cartoonish features of both the players and spectators add to the overall amusement of the artwork. The artist's clever use of color lithography enhances every detail, from the vibrant football strip worn by our hapless player to the animated expressions on each face in the crowd. It is as if we can hear their cheers and jeers echoing through time. This postcard-sized gem serves as a reminder that sports have always been about more than just competition; they are also sources of joy, camaraderie, and endless entertainment. Whether you're an avid fan or simply appreciate art that brings a smile to your face, "Centre Forward (colour litho)" is sure to brighten any space it graces.
