EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tempus Fugit" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The engraving, created by Thomas Davidson, showcases a scene filled with symbolism and emotion. In this artwork, we witness the passing of time through various elements such as scythes and sundials. The image portrays agricultural workers laboring in the fields while children play nearby. It beautifully captures the essence of fleeting moments and reminds us that time waits for no one. The Latin phrase "tempus fugit" meaning "time flies" is aptly depicted here as a reminder of life's transience. Davidson's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique, bringing depth and texture to each element within the composition. This particular print was featured in The Graphic on July 26th, 1879. As we gaze upon this enchanting piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported into an era long gone but not forgotten. It serves as a poignant reminder to cherish every precious moment we have with loved ones and appreciate the beauty found in simple everyday scenes. This print offers both historical significance and artistic brilliance, making it a valuable addition to any art enthusiast's collection or anyone seeking inspiration from our past.
