EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Twelve Ages of Man: August" takes us on a journey through time and the ever-changing stages of human life. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 16th century, this print is part of a private collection that holds great historical significance. Intriguingly, this artwork was originally featured in a book of hours printed by Thielman Kerver in Paris back in 1522. It resurfaced again when his widow, Yolande Bonhomme, reprinted it for an edition released in 1922. The woodcuts from that edition have been faithfully reproduced here using Linotype technology. "The Twelve Ages of Man: August" represents one specific moment within this cycle of existence. As we delve into the month dedicated to charity and compassion, we witness individuals at various stages of their lives engaging with acts of kindness and generosity towards others. This lithograph serves as a reminder that time passes swiftly and each stage brings its own unique experiences and lessons. From infancy to old age, every phase shapes our character and influences our interactions with the world around us. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, let us reflect on our own passage through these twelve ages - embracing love, empathy, and benevolence along the way.
