EDITORS COMMENTS
Time and Chance happeneth to all alike, 1901" is a captivating oil painting by John Byam Liston Shaw that measures 86x61 cm. This artwork belongs to a series of 30 paintings called "Sermons in Stones and Good in Everything" which draws inspiration from the Old Testament Book of Ecclesiastes. In this particular piece, Shaw reflects on the nature of human vanity. The composition features a serene landscape with birds, trees, undergrowth, and a meandering stream. The scene exudes an air of age and wisdom as it showcases a pathway leading through lush foliage and vibrant flowers. Doves gracefully fly overhead while attendants observe from afar. Shaw's allegorical approach adds an element of mystery to the painting. Monarch butterflies flutter around garlands hanging from trees, creating a magical atmosphere within the forest. Pigs roam freely amidst the enchanting scenery. The artist skillfully combines elements of nature with symbolic figures such as courtiers and even a baby, representing different stages of life's journey. Through his intricate brushwork and attention to detail, Shaw invites viewers to contemplate themes like poverty, youthfulness, folly, religion, and magic. This thought-provoking artwork captures both the beauty found in nature's wonders and the universal experiences shared by humanity throughout time. It serves as a reminder that regardless of our circumstances or station in life, we are all subject to the unpredictable forces of time and chance.
