EDITORS COMMENTS
The Proud Frog: A Timeless Tale of Humility from the Early 20th Century This photograph print, titled "The Proud Frog" or "Was it so big? says the old frog, swelling & blowing up her speckled body to a great degree," was created in 1912 by an unknown artist, most likely inspired by the classic fable of the same name. The image, now a historical relic, showcases an old frog in the midst of a grandiose display of self-aggrandizement. The old frog, with its speckled, weathered body, is shown in the process of swelling and blowing up its body to an exaggerated size. The expression on its face suggests a mixture of pride and defiance, as if daring others to question its size. This moment in time, frozen in the photograph, is a testament to the enduring power of the ancient fable. The origins of this fable can be traced back to Aesop's collection of tales, compiled around 600 BCE. The moral of the story is a universal reminder of the dangers of pride and the importance of humility. The tale tells of a frog who boasts about its size and challenges other animals to outdo it. In response, a mouse suggests that the frog swallow an elephant, to which the frog eagerly agrees. The frog soon realizes the futility of its attempt and learns a valuable lesson about the limits of one's abilities. This photograph print, with its intriguing subject matter and historical significance, serves as a reminder of the power of folklore and the enduring appeal of the fable genre. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the timeless themes of pride, humility, and the human condition.
