@bymuseum: Anger Transference (1954) By Richard Sargent Published for The Saturday Evening Post The joke is simple. The damage is not. Anger Transference looks like a comic strip at first. A boss shouts at a man in an office. The man cannot shout back, so he carries the anger home. Then he shouts at his wife. She cannot safely return it to him, so the anger moves again. She turns toward the child. The child, too small to fight the adults, finds the only creature smaller than himself: the cat. That is the whole cruelty of the painting. Nobody is angry at the right person. Each person receives anger from someone stronger, then passes it to someone weaker. The boss has power over the man. The man has power at home. The mother has power over the child. The child has power over the cat. The final panel is the most painful one. The cat has no office, no marriage, no argument, no guilt. The cat simply becomes the last victim of an emotion it never created. That is why the title matters. This is not just anger. It is Anger Transference. If you do not stop anger when it reaches you, you may become the next person who delivers it. 👉 Follow @bymuseum for vivid stories and hidden meanings in classical art.
