EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing engraving titled "Canvassing at Election Time" artist Arthur Moreland takes us back in time to a comical scene during an election campaign. The print, now part of a private collection, captures the essence of political humor and historical satire. Set against the backdrop of Germany, we witness a group of nobles engaging in some rather unconventional tactics to secure votes. With their exaggerated expressions and animated gestures, they are seen pulling wires and resorting to bribery in an attempt to sway public opinion. This humorous portrayal sheds light on the sometimes dubious methods employed by politicians throughout history. Moreland's clever depiction not only showcases his artistic talent but also provides insight into the social dynamics and power struggles prevalent during that era. The inclusion of characters such as Louis, Frank Duke, Conrad, and others adds depth to the narrative while subtly commenting on European politics. The image has been digitally cleaned for enhanced clarity while preserving its original charm. Its amusing nature makes it a delightful addition to any art collection or display focused on historical caricatures or political satire. This artwork from Bridgeman Images invites viewers to reflect upon our own contemporary electoral processes while appreciating the timeless appeal of humor in art.
