EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Timeless British Saying Illustrated in a Late 19th Century Lantern Slide This evocative black and white lantern slide, titled "Stick to it and do it," is a captivating glimpse into the past from the extensive Boswell Collection on Mary Evans Prints Online. The image, part of Box 197 Sayings, depicts a determined man pushing a painted cart and horses up a steep hill. This powerful scene is one of several illustrations from John Ploughman's Pictures, a series created by the renowned British Particular Baptist preacher, C.H. Spurgeon (1834-1892). The phrase "Stick to it and succeed" is a popular and enduring saying that has resonated with generations. Its inclusion in this collection of traditional proverbs and quotes reflects the importance of perseverance and hard work during the late 19th century. Spurgeon's illustrations, with their moral undertones, were widely used in religious and educational contexts, making this a significant historical artifact. The man in the image, with his resolute expression and steady pace, embodies the spirit of this timeless saying. The painted cart and horses, straining against the incline, symbolize the challenges we face in life. Yet, the man's unwavering commitment to his task is a testament to the power of persistence. This powerful image, created over a century ago, continues to inspire and remind us of the importance of staying the course and never giving up on our goals. In this lantern slide, we are transported back in time, offering a unique perspective on the values and beliefs that shaped the British culture of the late 19th century. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of simple yet profound sayings and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity.
