EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "It's no use calling the tiger to chase away the dog" takes us back to 1932, capturing a moment of humor and wisdom. Created by renowned artist Rene Bull, this color litho artwork is part of a private collection. The image depicts a scene inspired by a traditional Arabian proverb, showcasing both the front and verso of a cigarette card from the Churchman series of Eastern Proverbs. During its heyday from the late 19th century until World War II, cigarette cards like these were immensely popular as collector items and sources of instruction, entertainment, and amusement in an era before television and radio took over. In this clever illustration, we see an Arab man holding a walking stick or cane while facing two animals: a fierce tiger on one side and an innocent-looking dog on the other. The caption suggests that it would be futile to call upon the powerful tiger to chase away such an insignificant creature as the dog. This vintage card not only offers amusement but also imparts valuable lessons about psychology, philosophy, problem-solving, and folly. It serves as both advertisement for cigarettes (a product prevalent at that time) as well as educational material for those who collected them. As we admire this unique piece of artistry from Bull's creative mind, we are reminded of how even seemingly simple illustrations can carry profound messages within them.
