EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Sketches at the Opening of Parliament" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of political fervor during that era. The scene unfolds within the grandeur of Parliament buildings in London. The image showcases a multitude of politicians, lawyers, and influential figures engaged in various activities. Mr. Parnell can be seen reading letters while imprisoned, his face reflecting both determination and resilience amidst adversity. Meanwhile, Mr. W. H Smith holds a tribute as cheers echo through the halls. As our eyes wander across the composition, we notice Lord R Churchill receiving counsel from Sir M Hicks Beach and Lord J Manners consulting with Lord G Hamilton. These interactions highlight the importance of collaboration and strategic decision-making within politics. Intriguingly, this artwork also features prominent figures such as Mr. Balfour, Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Dillon, Sir C Russell, Mr. Ritchie - each playing their unique roles within this intricate political landscape. Through its meticulous details and expert craftsmanship, this engraving transports us to a time when politics was not only about power but also about defending justice and advocating for one's beliefs.
