EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sketches in the Law Courts" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the intriguing world of English law. The engraving, part of a private collection, showcases an illustration originally featured in The Illustrated London News on November 6th, 1886. The image transports us to a bustling courtroom within the Royal Courts of Justice in London. Dressed in their distinguished silk gowns and crowns, we see law officers and lawyers attentively waiting for their turn to address the court. A case is underway as depicted by various individuals engaged in intense discussions. Amongst them stands a junior lawyer who seems caught off guard by an awkward question posed by his opponent. His stuff gown suggests his relatively lower rank compared to other professionals present. This snapshot captures not only the formalities but also humanizes these legal proceedings with its candid portrayal of moments that unfold within these hallowed halls. The intricate details captured by this artwork offer viewers an immersive experience into the world of law courts during this era. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic testament to the significance of justice and legal professions throughout time. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, allowing us to appreciate its beauty while reflecting on our own modern-day judicial system's evolution.
