That Stale Bun,
EDITORS COMMENTS
by George Henry Thompson (1904) - A Humorous Drawing of a Disgruntled Hippo This delightful and humorous drawing, titled "That Stale Bun," is an original work by the talented British artist, George Henry Thompson, created in the year 1904. The image showcases a hippopotamus in a playful and lighthearted mood, expressing his disappointment and frustration with a stale bun. George Henry Thompson was a renowned artist, known for his ability to capture the essence of animals and their human-like emotions. In this drawing, he has brilliantly conveyed the hippo's displeasure with the stale bun through his expressive eyes and body language. The hippo's wrinkled nose, pouting lips, and crossed arms add to the humor and relatability of the image. The setting of the drawing is simple yet effective, with the hippo sitting on the edge of a body of water, surrounded by lush vegetation. The use of contrasting colors, such as the deep brown of the hippo's skin and the bright red of the stale bun, adds visual interest and draws the viewer's attention to the main subject. Despite being over a century old, "That Stale Bun" remains a timeless piece of art that continues to evoke laughter and delight. It is a reminder of the power of humor and the ability of art to bring joy and lightness to our lives. This drawing is not only a testament to George Henry Thompson's artistic talent but also a unique and charming addition to any collection of humorous animal illustrations.
