EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white lantern slide, titled 'Favourite Sayings - Duly feed man and steed,' is a poignant reminder of the wisdom of the past. Dating back to the 1890s, this image is part of the extensive 'Sayings, Boswell Collection' and was created by the renowned British Particular Baptist preacher, C.H. Spurgeon (1834-1892). The image depicts a thin, worn man and his equally emaciated horse, both laboriously making their way along a dusty road. The caption beneath the scene reads, 'Scant feeding of man or horse is small profit and sure loss.' This powerful proverbial statement underscores the importance of providing adequate care and sustenance for both man and beast. Spurgeon's illustrated 'John Ploughman's Pictures' were popular during the late 19th century and were intended to convey moral lessons through simple yet evocative imagery. This particular slide serves as a testament to the enduring value of traditional sayings and proverbs, which continue to resonate with us today. The image of the man and horse, both struggling to survive, is a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of our lives and the importance of taking care of those around us. The 1890s were a time of great social and economic change, and this powerful image serves as a reminder of the enduring truths that transcend the passage of time. In conclusion, this beautiful lantern slide is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a poignant reminder of the wisdom of the ages. The image of the man and horse, both struggling to survive, serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of care, sustenance, and the enduring value of traditional sayings and proverbs.
