EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing and humorous image, titled "The Last Word," is a classic work of art by the renowned British illustrator William Heath Robinson (1872-1944). The print, created in 1925, depicts a motorcyclist completely engrossed in the challenge of completing a crossword puzzle, oblivious to the imminent danger that lies ahead. With the answer to one of the clues, "To fall; to break to little pieces," in sight, the rider triumphantly exclaims "C-R-A-S-H" just as his motorcycle drives off the edge of a cliff. The historical context of this illustration is significant, as it reflects the growing popularity of both motorcycles and crossword puzzles during the early 20th century. Motorcycles represented the height of modern technology and freedom, while crosswords offered an intellectual challenge and a new form of entertainment. Heath Robinson's whimsical and imaginative style perfectly captures the essence of both trends, adding a touch of danger and humor to the scene. This image, with its clever wordplay and visual wit, is a testament to Heath Robinson's artistic talent and his ability to capture the spirit of the times. The Cross-Word Fiend's momentary triumph, as he discovers the answer to the puzzle, is a reminder of the allure of a good puzzle and the potential consequences of becoming too engrossed in it.
