Not out of Danger or, Among the Icebergs
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that takes us back to the 19th century and invites us into a world of adventure and satire. The image, created by Matthew "Matt". Somerville Morgan, showcases his talent for combining humour with political commentary. Set against a backdrop of towering icebergs, we see a ship sailing perilously close to danger. This whimsical scene captures the essence of British politics at the time, as it satirizes the Irish Church Bill and its potential impact on the Church of Ireland. Through clever caricatures and comic elements, Morgan delivers scathing satire aimed at those in power. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph bring life to every detail - from the exaggerated expressions on each character's face to their exaggerated features. It is evident that Morgan's skill lies not only in his ability to create visually stunning artwork but also in his keen understanding of political nuances. This print was originally published in The Tomahawk magazine on July 17th, 1869. Its publication would have undoubtedly sparked conversations among readers about religion, politics, and social issues prevalent during Victorian times. Today, this piece serves as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact. It reminds us of our past while offering insight into how art can be used as a powerful tool for social commentary. "Not out of Danger or Among the Icebergs" continues to captivate audiences with its wit and charm centuries after its creation.
