Herluf Bidstrup. Humor and Satire
29.99 €
Herluf Bidstrup was a Danish cartoonist who depicted the life boiling around him in the middle of the last century. This volume contains both his well-known cartoons and those that have been unpublished for more than 30 years. The light, humorous subjects and sharp political satire can amuse not only adults but children as well. After all, visual humor is accessible and universal to witty people of all ages. This is what makes the works of Herluf Bidstrup unique.
A significant part of the work of the Danish artist is occupied by simple everyday themes. He managed, it would seem, impossible for the time of world discord and disunity - he was able to accommodate all the people of the world in his humorous caricatures of typical Danes. Herluf Bidstrup also did not miss the opportunity to express his indignation at world politics and the imperfections of society through his drawings. The sharp dagger of his satire struck down the fomenters of fear and hatred, gathering around him sensible and caring people. Even with time, Bidstrup's cartoons have not lost their relevance and continue to cause laughter and joy in good, thinking people and to strike at the heart of the terrifying leviathan, whose name is Enmity and Malice.
