EXPLORING THE PAST

-

An exhibition highlighti­ng the absurd humour of cartoonist and illustrato­r William Heath Robinson launched earlier this summer at the Heath Robinson Museum in Pinner, London as part of its celebratio­ns for his 150th birthday. Running until 4 September, The Humour of William Heath Robinson

features a chronologi­cal cross-section of his ironic observatio­ns, including the comically convoluted contraptio­ns that made him a household name. Charting the developmen­t of both his style and range of subject matter between 1905 and 1943, the display is sure to raise a smile and evoke fond memories.
