EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Underground Parliament" by Harry Furniss takes us back to the 17th century, a time of intrigue and secrecy. The image depicts a clandestine meeting taking place underground, shrouded in mystery and shadows.
From the Gunpowder Plot to the invention of the Fog Filter to combat London fogs, this illustration from Black and White magazine in 1891 captures a moment in history where plots were hatched and secrets were shared beneath the surface of society.
The detailed etching brings to life a scene filled with tension and anticipation, as figures gather around a table illuminated by candlelight. Each character seems to hold their own secrets, adding layers of complexity to the narrative unfolding before our eyes.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when political intrigue was rife and alliances were forged in secret locations. The artist's skillful hand has captured not just a moment in history but also the atmosphere of uncertainty that permeated those turbulent times.
"Underground Parliament" is not just an engraving; it is a window into a world where power struggles played out behind closed doors. It reminds us that history is often made in the shadows, away from prying eyes but leaving its mark on future generations.
