EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard print captures the whimsical and surreal world of "The Lobster Quadrille" by Charles Folkard, dating back to 1921. In this dream-like scene, we find ourselves on a picturesque beach at sunset. The sun casts a warm glow over the coast, while fluffy clouds float lazily in the sky above. Amidst this idyllic setting, an array of peculiar creatures come to life. A dapper lobster donning a tuxedo and monocle takes center stage as he leads a lively quadrille dance with his fellow oceanic companions. A turtle gracefully twirls alongside a snail, while fish and reptiles sway to the rhythm of the waves. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element of this enchanting composition. From the intricate patterns on their outfits to the vibrant colors of algae and seaweed surrounding them, each character exudes its own unique charm. "The Lobster Quadrille" postcard transports us into a fictional realm where animals engage in sophisticated folk dancing against an otherworldly backdrop. It serves as both an homage to Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and Folkard's artistic prowess. This piece showcases not only Folkard's mastery in commercial art and graphic design but also his ability to create imaginative worlds that captivate viewers even after all these years. Located within Lake County Museum, this color print is truly representative of Western European period style during that era.
