"Revenge is a dish best served cold," the saying goes, as depicted in the 1830 painting "Arrival in Chicago" where the victorious Negro Johnson triumphantly receives welcomes after winning a boxing competition. Yet, hatred and vengeance can be eternal, as shown in the engraving "Annibal's Eternal Hate for the Romans." The bloodthirsty Bolshevik in the 1919 poster holds a knife between his teeth, a chilling reminder of the hatred and violence that can fuel revolutions. Contrastingly, the Children's Daily Bread engraving warns against hateful actions towards "thieves and robbers." The litho "Exceeding odious and hateful" further emphasizes the destructive nature of hatred. The Two "Pierres," or Prisoners of War, chromolitho, depicts the bitter reality of war and the hatred it breeds. In modern times, the popular TV series George and Mildred explores the complexities of hate and revenge in relationships. And finally, the Fall of Babylon, as depicted in Dore's engraving, serves as a reminder of the destructive power of hatred and the inevitable consequences it brings.
