In the bustling streets of London, Dr Johnson's penance was captured in an engraving that depicted the jostle of everyday life. Central Park, 1856, witnessed a romantic date amidst the jostling crowd, where love blossomed despite the chaos. A sedan chair crash from c. 1820 reminds us that even in moments of luxury and comfort, unexpected they can occur. Paul Cézanne's Ginger Jar Pot de gingembre series from 1895 showcases his mastery in capturing stillness amid movement. The repetition of these serene images highlights how even in a world full and commotion, there are pockets of tranquility to be found. On a different note, Brighton and Hove Albion clashed with Watford on February 2nd, 2019, creating an electrifying atmosphere filled with cheers and jeers as players fiercely jostled for victory on the Premier League pitch. Whether it is through historical engravings or contemporary sports events like this one at Brighton's stadium, we are reminded that life is often characterized by its constant jostle – whether physical or metaphorical – pushing us forward towards new experiences and challenges.
