EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Judge Jefferies beaten by the mob" transports us back to a tumultuous moment in history. The image, captured by an unknown English School artist in the 19th century, depicts a dramatic scene of chaos and rebellion. In this private collection piece, we witness the infamous Judge Jefferies being mercilessly attacked by an enraged mob. Known as the "hanging judge". Jefferies was notorious for his ruthless and biased judgments during the late 17th century in London. This depiction showcases the consequences of his actions as he becomes a target for those seeking justice and retribution. The setting is evocative, with the Thames River serving as a backdrop to this violent encounter. The composition skillfully captures both movement and tension, conveying the raw emotions running high among both assailants and onlookers alike. This powerful illustration originally appeared in Henry Tyrrell's History of England around 1860, offering viewers a glimpse into one of London's darkest chapters. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem within their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to reflect upon past injustices while appreciating its artistic merit. Through this thought-provoking image, we are reminded that even figures of authority can face repercussions when they abuse their power – an enduring message that resonates across time.
