EDITORS COMMENTS
Making Sure (litho) by Percy James Billinghurst captures a delightful moment in nature's classroom. In this charming print, we are transported to ancient Rome, where a group of crows gathers around Augustus Caesar and Marc Antony, eagerly listening to their teachings. The intricate details and masterful technique of the lithograph bring the scene to life, as each crow is meticulously rendered with feathers ruffled in anticipation. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the composition, making it truly captivating. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for A Hundred Anecdotes of Animals, a book that celebrates the fascinating world of animals through engaging stories. Here, Billinghurst beautifully depicts these intelligent creatures engaged in conversation with historical figures from antiquity. 'Making Sure' not only showcases the artist's talent but also serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with nature throughout history. It highlights how even animals have sought knowledge from human wisdom across time and space. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded that learning knows no boundaries – it transcends species and eras alike. Let us be inspired by these curious crows who remind us to always seek knowledge wherever it may reside.
