What you’re looking at
This page appears to be from *Life* magazine and shows a sketch titled "After Problems—" with a subtitle mentioning "RED CROSS NURSE." The illustration depicts a woman in profile with short, dark 1920s-style hair, drawn in a loose ink style. She appears to be looking back over her shoulder with a subtle expression. The cartoon likely comments on post-World War I experiences, given the Red Cross nurse reference. The "After Problems" title suggests this addresses the aftermath of wartime service. The sketch's style and the woman's fashionable appearance reflect 1920s aesthetics, possibly satirizing how nurses or women who served during the war were perceived or treated upon returning to civilian life. However, without additional context or clearer text, the specific satirical point remains somewhat unclear.
