EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Military Flogging" takes us back to the 19th century when corporal punishment was prevalent in military institutions. The image depicts a scene of discipline and control as soldiers endure the harsh consequences of their actions. The artist masterfully captures the intensity of this moment, showcasing a soldier stripped bare from his upper garments, exposing his vulnerable back. Standing tall with authority is an officer wielding the infamous nine tails whip, ready to administer justice. The tension in the air is palpable as fellow soldiers look on with mixed emotions - fear, sympathy, or perhaps relief that they are not in his place. Amidst this somber atmosphere lies an unexpected touch of innocence - a group of kittens curiously observing the unfolding events. Their presence serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst brutality and strict discipline, life's simplicity can still find its way into our consciousness. "Military Flogging" offers viewers a glimpse into history; it sheds light on practices that were once deemed acceptable but have since been abandoned for more humane methods of maintaining order within military ranks. This thought-provoking print invites contemplation on how far we have come as societies in terms of understanding compassion and empathy towards one another.
