Watermelon imagery has become a lasting perennial theme and early artistic images, such as the one found here, were used to invite a sense of fun and whimsy in a time when most of the world was recovering or enduring the Great Depression. This style of representative imagery is indicative of printed silks of the 1920s and 30s.
