Sausages: Freestyle LDN art show in York

I’m going to be exhibiting six of my illustrations at Freestyle LDN art show in York on 26th April 2008. Here’s my latest illustration of a man eating a sausage. It’s from a tinned sausage advert I saw in Prague last summer, and the image was apparently an original 1917 illustration. I’ve tweaked it a bit of course, and vectorised it. Another version of the ad has spit dribbing from his chin. Lovely. I also like how dainty his fingers are.

Did you see the ‘sausage guy’ at the pub U Medviku by any chance?

Hmm nope. But comments on this image on my Flickr lead me to this cafe and this sausage company. Is that the cafe you’re talking about? I took the image above from a poster in the Prague airport delicatessen… in the shop they had tinned sausages with the same image on. I love it! The mystery now is, did the cafe steal the image from the sausage company? Or did they both use the same original illustration?
