EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Edwardian humorous postcard captures a whimsical moment between a doctor and his patient, a very fat woman. The scene is set in the early 20th century, with vibrant colors brought to life through lithography. The German School artist skillfully portrays the comical interaction between the two characters. The doctor can be seen wearing an elegant waistcoat and hat, showcasing the fashion of the era. With a mischievous smile on his face, he playfully places his earpiece against the woman's round belly as if listening for something extraordinary. The woman herself appears amused by this unconventional examination method, adorned with ribbons that add to her jovial appearance. In this lighthearted image, humor takes center stage as it pokes fun at societal norms and expectations surrounding weight and health. It offers us a glimpse into an era where laughter was cherished amidst daily struggles. This vintage postcard serves as both entertainment and historical documentation of its time period. Its vivid colors and comic elements make it an intriguing piece of art that continues to captivate viewers even after more than a century since its creation.
