EDITORS COMMENTS
In this whimsical engraving titled "Division of Labour" we are transported to a world where even the animal kingdom adheres to the principles of teamwork and collaboration. Created by Percy J. Billingshurst in 1924, this delightful print is part of his collection called "A Hundred Anecdotes of Animals". The scene depicts a group of industrious marmots working together to construct an impressive dam. With their tiny paws and determined expressions, these furry creatures showcase their incredible ability to divide tasks and work towards a common goal. As we gaze upon this humorous image, it's hard not to draw parallels between these diligent marmots and our own human society. The anecdote captured here serves as a gentle reminder that success often lies in unity and cooperation. Billingshurst's artistic talent shines through in every intricate detail of this engraving. From the texture on each individual marmot's fur to the meticulous rendering of the dam itself, he brings life and personality to these adorable animals. So take a moment to appreciate the moral behind this amusing artwork – whether you're building dams or pursuing your dreams, remember that sharing responsibilities can lead us all towards greater achievements. And let us cherish those unexpected sources from which we find inspiration – even if they come from unlikely places like mischievous marmots!
