EDITORS COMMENTS
Self-Help in War Time: Building a Bungalow (No III) - A whimsical and humorous take on house construction from the brilliant mind of British illustrator, William Heath Robinson, in this 1917 print titled "Building a bungalow: Now, having made a good start with your music-room, place your piano in position." In this charming and quirky illustration, Heath Robinson presents an upside-down and back-to-front approach to building a bungalow during wartime. The scene depicts a group of determined builders, each with a unique and absurd tool or method, constructing a house in an unconventional manner. A ladder leans precariously against the wall, with a man at the top, seemingly attempting to place a brick on the roof. Another man is shown inside the house, upside-down, hammering nails into the ceiling. The most intriguing element of the illustration is the piano, which has been placed in the middle of the construction site, with a man at the keys, playing a lively tune. The caption encourages the viewer to "place your piano in position," suggesting that music is an essential part of the building process. Heath Robinson's illustration offers a humorous and light-hearted perspective on the challenges of building a home during a time of war. The print is a testament to the artist's ability to capture the absurdity and ingenuity of the human spirit in the face of adversity. This historical print is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of housing, humour, or the silly and crazy ways we build our homes.
