VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image appears to be a vintage advertisement or an excerpt from a publication. The top half of the image shows an illustration of a large, round stone with inscriptions and symbols on it, standing in tall grass with trees in the background. A snake-like creature is depicted coming out from behind the stone, its head raised and facing towards the viewer. The bottom half contains text that provides context for the illustration above. It describes a location ten miles from London Bridge at "the side of one of Kent's busy arterial roads, " where this ancient stone stands secluded by bushes. The text suggests that this stone has witnessed many years go by and carries engravings which symbolize messages deeply impressed upon it over time. Below this descriptive passage is another section titled "KISMET" followed by more text explaining that Kismet is a trade mark deeply engraved in experience—possibly referring to products or services offered by William Turner & Bro. , Ltd. , who are mentioned as Pneumatic & Mechanical Engineers since 1825 based in Sheffield. Overall, the caption could read: "Vintage advertisement featuring an evocative illustration of an ancient inscribed stone associated with timeless wisdom and mystery, used metaphorically to promote 'KISMET'—a trademark signifying deep-rooted reliability and history offered by William Turner & Bro. , Ltd. "
