EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from 1912, we see Peter the terrier gazing up at White-Ear's flayed skin on display in the kennels. The image is both haunting and thought-provoking, as Peter contemplates the fragility of life and inevitability of death.
As Peter stares at the stark reminder of mortality before him, he is filled with philosophical thoughts about existence and our place in the world. The bars on the window behind him serve as a metaphor for the boundaries that confine us all, while the straw scattered on the ground hints at the impermanence of life.
The artist, Cecil Aldin, has masterfully captured a moment of introspection and contemplation in this poignant scene. The detail in White-Ear's fur and skin is so lifelike that it almost feels as though he could come back to life at any moment.
This illustration serves as a powerful reminder to cherish each moment we have on this earth, for one day we too will be nothing more than a memory. It challenges us to reflect on our own mortality and consider what legacy we will leave behind when our time comes.
Overall, this print is a beautiful yet sobering meditation on life, death, and everything in between.
