EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour litho print by Rene Bull that depicts the stark contrast between poverty and wealth. This thought-provoking image captures the essence of Eastern Proverbs, as it was part of a set of cigarette cards published by Churchman in the early 20th century. In this artwork, Bull skillfully portrays two distinct groups: the impoverished seeking sustenance and the affluent yearning for satisfaction. The striking visual juxtaposition highlights societal inequalities prevalent throughout history. The historical significance of this print cannot be understated. It serves as a reminder of past struggles faced by those less fortunate while shedding light on timeless themes such as greed and privilege. The saying itself carries profound meaning - while some struggle to meet their basic needs, others are consumed by desires beyond necessity. This educational piece prompts viewers to reflect upon social dynamics and question our own roles within them. It encourages us to consider how we can bridge these gaps and work towards a more equitable society. As we gaze at this powerful image, let us not forget its purpose: to educate and inspire change. Through art like "The poor seek food, the rich an appetite" we gain insight into diverse cultures, histories, and human experiences – ultimately fostering empathy and understanding for one another's plight.
