EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing black and white lantern slide, part of the Box 197 Sayings collection in the Boswell Collection, depicts a popular British proverb brought to life through the illustrative creations of C.H. Spurgeon in the late 1890s. The image shows a man attempting to put a horse the wrong way round between the shafts of a cart. Two men stand at the side, one pointing to what the man is doing, signaling the error of his ways. The phrase "Don't put the cart before the horse" is a traditional proverb that originated in ancient Greece and has been passed down through the centuries. It is a caution against taking unnecessary or ill-advised actions before considering the consequences, and this visual representation perfectly encapsulates the meaning of the saying. Spurgeon, a renowned British Particular Baptist preacher, used this illustration as part of his John Ploughman's Pictures to convey this timeless wisdom to his audience. The lantern slide, created in the late 1890s, is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique insight into the way proverbs and sayings were used to impart knowledge and wisdom in the late 19th century.
