EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and whimsical illustration from 1925 depicts a group of skiiers hilariously out of place amidst the glamorous holiday makers of the Riviera. Created by renowned artists William Heath Robinson and Howard K. Elcock, the scene captures the attention of onlookers as the characters navigate their way through a setting that is clearly not meant for winter sports.
The contrast between the rugged, bundled-up skiiers and the elegant, sun-soaked vacationers creates a delightful sense of humor in this historical image. The expressions on the faces of both groups - with some showing curiosity and others amusement - add to the overall charm of this scene.
Credit must be given to (c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library for preserving this delightful piece of art history. The collaboration between Robinson and Elcock shines through in every detail, from the exaggerated poses of the skiiers to the fashionable attire worn by those around them.
This print serves as a reminder that sometimes it's okay to be out-of-place, as long as you can bring joy and laughter to those around you. So let yourself be transported back to 1925 Riviera with this humorous illustration that is sure to bring a smile to your face.
