EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical lithograph print, titled "Patience is the key of joy; but haste is the key of sorrow" captures a moment of both humor and wisdom. Created in 1932 by Rene Bull, this artwork showcases an Arabian proverb through the lens of a cigarette card from the Churchman series of Eastern Proverbs. The illustration cleverly presents both sides of the cigarette card, providing a glimpse into its educational and entertaining nature. During its heyday from the late 19th century until World War II, cigarette cards like these were immensely popular as collector items and sources of instruction, amusement, and entertainment before television and radio became widespread. In this particular image, we see a scene that embodies contrasting emotions. On one side stands a lion representing speed and danger while on the other side lies a crocodile symbolizing patience. The accompanying proverb reminds us that patience leads to joy while haste often results in sorrow. This vintage card not only serves as an advertisement but also offers valuable counsel rooted in folk wisdom. It encourages viewers to reflect on their actions carefully before rushing into decisions or situations that may lead to regret. With its vibrant colors and humorous depiction, this lithograph print invites us to appreciate both its artistic value and timeless message about finding happiness through patience rather than succumbing to hasty choices.
