EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Entering the New Century! 'Eat to Live, ' not 'Live to Eat'" is a thought-provoking engraving by the English School from the 20th century. This artwork, now part of a private collection, showcases an illustration originally published in The Boys Own Paper in 1901. In this satirical drawing, we are presented with a humorous and scathing satire on our relationship with food. The cartoon depicts a table set for a meal, where individuals are engrossed in reading rather than indulging in their food. The artist cleverly emphasizes the importance of prioritizing sustenance over mere pleasure. The phrase "Eat to Live, not Live to Eat" serves as both an admonishment and reminder that our focus should be on nourishing ourselves rather than being consumed by excessive consumption. It challenges us to reconsider our attitudes towards eating and encourages mindful choices when it comes to our food supply. Through its caricature-like style and satirical tone, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on society's obsession with dining experiences while neglecting the true purpose of meals – sustaining life. It prompts us to question whether we have become too preoccupied with indulgence at the expense of health and well-being. Overall, this engraving offers a witty commentary on human behavior around mealtimes while reminding us of the fundamental importance of eating for survival rather than mere gratification.
