EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Betwixt the Devil and the Deep Sea" by John Charlton takes us on a journey back to 1892. The intricate details of this print transport us to a time when horses were an essential mode of transportation. In this scene, we witness two majestic horses standing at the edge of what seems like an endless deep sea. Their powerful presence is juxtaposed against the vastness and mystery of the ocean before them. It's as if they are caught in a moment of contemplation, torn between facing their fears or succumbing to the unknown depths. The artist skillfully captures every muscle and sinew in these magnificent creatures, showcasing their strength and beauty. The attention to detail extends beyond just the horses; even small elements such as waves crashing against rocks add depth and realism to this artwork. Through this engraving, we are reminded of our own dilemmas - those moments where we find ourselves caught between difficult choices with no clear path forward. Just like these horses, we must summon our courage and make decisions that will shape our destiny. "Bridgeman Images" has preserved this remarkable piece from history for us all to admire. As we gaze upon it, let us reflect on how far we have come since then while appreciating the timeless beauty captured within its frame.
