For The Cause of Art: A Humorous Take on Motoring Inconvenience by W. Heath Robinson (Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library) This delightful illustration by the renowned British artist, W. Heath Robinson, titled "For The Cause of Art," offers a charming and humorous depiction of the early days of motoring. In the scene, a determined artist, identified as W.I. Am, is depicted carrying an oversized easel and painting palette as he navigates a busy street filled with horse-drawn carriages and automobiles. The artist's focus is unwavering as he captures the essence of the bustling scene before him, oblivious to the chaos and obstruction he is causing. The cars behind him are piled up in a traffic jam, their drivers expressing various degrees of frustration and amusement at the scene unfolding before them. Heath Robinson's intricate and whimsical style adds to the humor of the situation, with the artist's disheveled appearance and the exaggerated proportions of the vehicles and obstacles in the scene. The illustration is a testament to the artist's ability to capture the inconvenience and excitement of the early days of motoring, and the lengths that artists will go to in the name of their craft. This historical cartoon, with its blend of humor and insight into the past, is a must-have for any collection of automotive or artistic history, and a reminder of the simple pleasures and challenges of a bygone era.
