This print titled "Hard Hands (colour litho)" by English School, captures the intricate details of a hand, showcasing the artistry and complexity of palmistry. The image depicts a hand with firm pressure, symbolizing resistance and revealing energy and perseverance. The pointed fingers exude elegance and activity, while an excessive hardness suggests a lack of intelligence. Part of a set of cigarette cards on Palmistry published by Carreras Ltd in the early 20th century, this artwork offers insight into the ancient practice of chirology. Through studying the lines on one's palm, experts can foretell future events and provide character analysis. The photograph invites viewers to delve into the world of palm reading as they explore each finger and crease on this intriguing hand. It serves as both an aesthetic piece for art enthusiasts and a thought-provoking study for those interested in personality characterization through palmistry. Displayed in a private collection, this print from Bridgeman Images is not only visually striking but also holds historical significance as it represents popular beliefs surrounding fortune-telling during that era. With its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors brought forth by colour lithography techniques, "Hard Hands" stands as an exceptional representation of fine art merging with divination practices.
