EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Lion and the Fox" from the year 1882, showcases a classic Aesop's fable brought to life through the masterful hands of a British cartoonist. The image depicts a determined British Lion in the midst of constructing a wall, with a sly Fox peering over his shoulder, attempting to offer assistance. The Lion, however, is having none of it, as evidenced by his stern expression and the caption bubble above his head, "Going to help me, are you? Thank you for nothing, Master Fox. I began the work alone, and I mean to finish it!!!". This timeless fable, which originated in ancient Greece, has been retold and reimagined throughout history, and this particular rendition is a testament to the enduring appeal of the tale. The moral of the story, "If you want a thing done well, you must do it yourself," is a valuable lesson that resonates with audiences even today. The intricate details of the print, from the textured fur of the animals to the expressive body language, transport us back to the 1880s and the world of Punch, a popular British satirical weekly magazine known for its humorous and thought-provoking cartoons. This print is not only a fascinating glimpse into the past but also a reminder of the power of self-reliance and the importance of seeing projects through to completion.
