Summary "Drawn at a Venture: A Collection of Drawings by Fougasse" is a collection of humorous illustrations created by Kenneth Bird, who is known by his pen name Fougasse. This book was first published in 1922, during the early 20th century, and it showcases Fougasse's wit and keen observations of British life, culture, and sports, particularly cricket and golf. The collection is presented with an introduction by A. A. Milne, adding context to the artist's style and contributions to humor in illustrated form. The book features a variety of whimsical and satirical sketches that reflect on everyday situations, social norms, and the quirks of British life. Each drawing incorporates clever commentary, often poking fun at the British character and the little absurdities of life, particularly in sporting contexts. Topics range from village cricket to the intimate moments of social interaction, capturing the spirit of the era with a light-hearted lens. The illustrations invite readers to laugh at relatable scenarios while celebrating the humor inherent in human interactions, making the collection a charming reflection of its time.
