EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Cornered" we are transported to a bygone era, captured in the brushstrokes of an English School artist from the 20th century. The image portrays a poignant scene that speaks volumes about human nature and resilience. At the center of attention is an old soldier, weathered by time and experience, engaged in a game of checkers with a young boy. They sit huddled together on a wooden board, their faces etched with concentration as they strategize their next moves. The tension is palpable; it seems as though the boy has cornered his opponent. The composition beautifully captures the essence of childhood innocence juxtaposed against the weight of life's challenges. The old soldier's worn-out stick serves as both his crutch and his tool for play, symbolizing how he navigates through life's obstacles while finding solace in simple pleasures. Through this evocative artwork, we witness not only a game being played but also an exchange between generations - an interplay between wisdom gained over years and youthful exuberance unburdened by past experiences. It reminds us that even when seemingly cornered by circumstances beyond our control, there is always room for hope and resilience. This print from Bridgeman Images invites us to reflect on our own lives: Are we willing to face adversity head-on? Can we find joy amidst challenging times? As viewers immerse themselves in this timeless moment frozen in artistry, they are encouraged to
