EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "It's no use calling the tiger to chase away the dog" by Rene Bull takes us on a visual journey into the realm of Eastern proverbs. The image, part of a set of cigarette cards published by Churchman in the early 20th century, showcases an intriguing historical artifact. In this vibrant lithograph, we see a scene that encapsulates wisdom and irony. A majestic tiger stands tall and powerful while a small dog playfully barks at its feet. The saying depicted reminds us that sometimes our efforts are futile when we seek help from unlikely sources or underestimate our own abilities. The composition is rich with symbolism as it captures not only the contrast between strength and vulnerability but also highlights cultural nuances. The walking stick or cane held by one figure suggests authority or wisdom, adding depth to this educational piece. As we delve into history through this thought-provoking artwork, it serves as a reminder of how ancient proverbs continue to resonate across time and cultures. This photograph print invites viewers to reflect upon their own experiences with sayings and explore the universal truths they hold. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this remarkable piece for future generations to appreciate its artistic brilliance and historical significance within the realms of both artistry and education.
