EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster, published in the United States after the devastating Great Depression of 1929, serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of savings and entrepreneurship during times of economic crisis. Created by American artist Villard Frederic Elmes and now part of a private collection, this artwork encapsulates the spirit of resilience and determination that defined an entire generation. The image features an old man with a long arm holding an hourglass, symbolizing the fleeting nature of time. With an arc stretching across the background, representing both ambition and industry, this allegorical figure stands as a beacon of hope amidst adversity. The message is clear: repeat mistakes and ruin performance; however, ensure that each error becomes a stepping stone towards improvement. This philosophy is proclaimed to be "the only way to win". Intricate details such as hunting imagery and displays hint at deeper meanings within this advertising poster. It not only encourages individuals to save but also emphasizes the importance of perseverance in achieving success. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking print by Giancarlo Costa from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to a pivotal era in American history when innovation was born out of necessity. Through its bold design and timeless message, this piece continues to inspire us today – reminding us that even in our darkest moments, there is always room for growth and triumph.
