EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Two paths there are, thro which all mortals go. . " by the English School in the 19th century takes us on a visual journey through the choices we face in life. The print depicts two distinct paths, one leading to bliss and the other descending into woe. It beautifully captures the universal truth that every individual must make decisions that shape their destiny. The image portrays a scene bustling with diverse characters from different walks of life - the rich, the gay, the witty, and the fair. This serves as a reminder that these paths are traversed by people from all backgrounds and social statuses. The contemporary hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy to this thought-provoking artwork. Inspired by Matthew VII from Scripture History for the Improvement of Youth (Kelly, c 1850), this engraving invites contemplation about our own choices and their consequences. It encourages viewers to reflect on whether they are walking towards happiness or veering towards despair. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, it becomes evident that regardless of who we are or where we come from, each step we take determines our ultimate destination. This timeless masterpiece reminds us of our responsibility to choose wisely as we navigate through life's intricate pathways.
