EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving of a Victorian satirical cartoon, titled "We squander health In seeking wealth" captures the essence of societal priorities in the 19th century. Created by the renowned artist Cynicus, this thought-provoking artwork serves as a poignant reminder of our relentless pursuit for material possessions at the expense of our own well-being. The image depicts a bustling scene where individuals are seen hoarding and toiling in their quest for wealth. They save diligently, believing that accumulating riches will bring them happiness and security. However, as they amass fortunes, they unknowingly sacrifice their precious health along the way. In an ironic twist, once these individuals realize the true value of good health and attempt to regain it by spending their amassed wealth on medical treatments or remedies, it is often too late. The grave reality becomes apparent - all their efforts were in vain. The pursuit of material possessions ultimately leads them only to find an early demise. Cynicus masterfully highlights society's obsession with ownership and accumulation through his clever use of satire. He exposes how we live our lives boasting about what we possess but fail to recognize that in death, all we receive is a cold stone marking our final resting place. Duncan1890's print beautifully preserves this timeless message from history while inviting us to reflect upon our own values and priorities today.
