EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorful lithograph print, titled "A hairs breadth at the bow is a mile beside the butt" by Rene Bull, captures a humorous illustration of a Chinese proverb. The image showcases both the front and back of a cigarette card from the Churchman series of Eastern Proverbs. During the golden age of cigarette cards in the early 20th century, these collectible items served as sources of instruction, entertainment, and amusement before television and radio became widespread. This particular card offers wisdom through its playful depiction. The artwork features an archery scene with arrows flying towards two targets: one at the bow's tip and another at its rear end. The exaggerated contrast between them emphasizes the essence of this Chinese proverb – that even slight variations in practice can lead to significant differences in outcomes. With vibrant colors and intricate details, Bull's lithograph not only entertains but also educates viewers about different cultures' folk wisdom. It reminds us that accidents or mistakes can occur when practicing any skill or pursuing any goal – whether it be archery or life itself. As we admire this vintage card today, it serves as a reminder to approach our endeavors with care and precision while embracing humor along the way.
