EDITORS COMMENTS
In this chromolitho print titled "Better luck next time" we are transported back to the 19th century, where an English School artist skillfully captures a moment of angling adventure. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of a vast and serene sea, inviting us to immerse ourselves in the world of fishing. A group of enthusiastic anglers is depicted on a small boat, their anticipation palpable as they cast their lines into the shimmering waters below. With each hopeful gaze fixed upon their bobbing floats, they eagerly await that elusive tug signaling a successful catch. However, fate seems to have other plans for them today. The title itself suggests that luck has not been on their side during this particular outing. Perhaps it was an unusually quiet day for fish or simply an unfortunate stroke of chance. Regardless, there is an air of resilience and determination among these fishermen as they refuse to be discouraged by temporary setbacks. This artwork originally served as an illustration for Chatterbox magazine in 1898 – a publication known for its engaging stories and educational content aimed at young readers. Through this image, we can imagine how it might have inspired children with its message about perseverance and embracing life's challenges head-on. Preserved within private collections over time, this print now finds its place in our contemporary world through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection. It reminds us that even when faced with disappointment or setbacks in our own pursuits, there is always hope for better luck next time – both on
