"HURRY! SLOWLY" - A glimpse of the bustling streets at Plaza Hotel, New York City. This captivating black and white photograph captures the essence of a busy city life from an elevated view. In Salonica, British and French soldiers display their urgency as they march forward with determination during wartime. An engraving takes us on an exhilarating journey to Switzerland's Schilthorn, showcasing an ascent that demands both speed and caution. Transporting us back in time to 1820 on the Newmarket Road, we witness a scene filled with hurried travelers eager to reach their destinations. The Olivetti Advert of 1932 reminds us of the importance of efficiency in our daily lives, urging us to embrace technology's ability to help us hurry through tasks. A majestic kudu leaps gracefully through the air, capturing the beauty and agility that comes with rushing towards its destination. "The rhythm of life" echoes through this image as people rush past each other on a crowded street corner – all moving at different paces but united by their shared need for haste. A somber reminder from World War I lies within a grave nestled in a shell hole on the Western Front – a poignant testament to lives cut short by war's relentless hurry. "I have to hurry, " whispers someone caught in the midst of chaos; their face etched with determination as they strive against time's unyielding grip. An urgent message is conveyed through original artwork adorning a small circular gift tag featuring an adorable dog – reminding us not to delay when it matters most. Witness nature defying gravity itself as a green double-crested basilisk sprints across water surfaces effortlessly – proof that even creatures can embody haste when necessary. In this collection spanning various eras and locations, "hurry" emerges as both an instinctual response and societal demand. Whether it be soldiers marching into battle or individuals navigating bustling cities or animals racing towards their goals, the concept of hurrying is an integral part of our lives.
