EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant colour block print captures the essence of the roaring 1920s and the exuberant spirit of the Charleston dance. Titled "You must like the Charleston, Mr Greco, it wears out shoes" this artwork transports us to White Bottoms pub in Paris during a time when jazz music was at its peak. The scene is filled with high society individuals dressed in their finest attire - men donning black tie suits and women adorned in elegant pink dresses and pearls. The artist, Sem Georges Goursat, known as SEM, skillfully portrays caricatures of these upper-class characters who are fully immersed in the joyous rhythm of the Charleston. As musicians play lively jazz tunes on stage, couples twirl and whirl across the dance floor with infectious energy. The excessive movements of this popular dance style are evident through worn-out shoes scattered around them. It's a testament to both their dedication to dancing and their love for this electrifying era. This historical gem from Heritage Images captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of how art can encapsulate an entire cultural movement. Through this colourful illustration, we are transported back to an age where flappers ruled supreme and Parisian nightlife was synonymous with extravagance and freedom.
