EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and lively print titled "More Haste Less Speed" by Arthur John Elsley, we are transported back to the year 1899. The scene takes place at a bustling railway station, where chaos ensues as a young boy in a sailor suit rushes through the platform. With an armful of apples spilling from his bag, the mischievous child seems to have caused quite an accident. His pet dog eagerly follows behind him, adding to the confusion. A nanny can be seen in the background, clearly stressed by the situation unfolding before her eyes. The painting captures a moment of youthful energy and haste that resonates with viewers even today. It serves as a reminder that sometimes rushing too quickly can lead to unforeseen accidents and mishaps. Elsley's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork - from the vibrant colors of holly adorning nearby structures to the expressions on each character's face. This Victorian-era masterpiece showcases not only Elsley's artistic talent but also his ability to capture everyday scenes filled with life and movement. As we gaze upon this delightful print, we cannot help but feel drawn into its narrative - one that reminds us all about the importance of slowing down and savoring life's moments rather than hurrying through them without thought or care.
