EDITORS COMMENTS

The scene depicts a bustling lunchtime on the iconic Thames Embankment, where mechanistic contraptions and fantastical machines dominate the landscape. In this comical artwork, Robinson's imagination runs wild as he presents a surreal world filled with peculiar activities. A giant balloon floats above, while people engage in unconventional pastimes like swimming in cars or fishing with elaborate machinery. Cleopatra's Needles stand tall in the background, adding to the eccentricity of the setting. Robinson's clever use of visual puns and intricate details invites viewers to explore every corner of this imaginative tableau. From chess-playing commuters aboard a bus to an array of bizarre public transport options, his satirical commentary on modern life shines through. The artist's unique style combines elements of British culture and European influences, resulting in an amusing portrayal of everyday scenes transformed into extraordinary spectacles. With his signature wit and skillful engraving techniques, Robinson brings this delightful print to life. This artwork from Bridgeman Images showcases not only Robinson's artistic brilliance but also his ability to find humor in even the most mundane aspects of life. "Luncheon Hour on the Thames Embankment" is sure to bring smiles and laughter as it transports viewers into a world where absurdity reigns supreme.
