EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Illustrated News, a Sketch of the Rise and Progress of Pictorial Journalism" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of early journalism. This print showcases various scenes that highlight significant moments in the history of pictorial journalism. In this intricate artwork, we see a man standing proudly next to his steam carriage, symbolizing progress and innovation. The image represents an important event that occurred on December 9th, 1827 when horses lost their dominance as a means of transportation. The observer is reminded of Mr. Gurney's victory over traditional horse-drawn carriages. Another scene depicted in this engraving transports us to Newmarket on January 8th, 1827. Here we witness an intense fight between two men amidst a crowd; perhaps it was an event covered by Illustrated News itself or simply representative of its dedication to capturing dramatic moments for its readers. As our eyes wander across the print, we are also drawn to other notable references such as Bells Life from 1831 and Liston at Regents Park performing Paul Pry in 1825. These elements serve as reminders that pictorial journalism not only covered news but also entertained its audience with theatrical events and cultural highlights. This intriguing print offers us a window into the past where illustrated news played a vital role in shaping public opinion through visual storytelling. It serves as both an homage to historical milestones and an invitation for viewers to delve deeper into the fascinating world
