EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intense and historic "Birmingham Riots" that took place on July 15,1839. The engraving, created by renowned artist Hablot Knight Browne (Phiz), captures the chaos and violence that unfolded during this notorious event. The image is a reproduction of an illustration featured in "The Chronicles of Crime or The New Newgate Calendar" by Camden Pelham, with original drawings by Phiz. It offers a glimpse into a significant moment in history when chartists and reform activists fought for universal suffrage. Intriguingly, this engraving provides a window into the dark underbelly of society at that time. It portrays rioters engaging in criminal acts while expressing their discontent through violent means. The scene is filled with tension as individuals clash against each other amidst burning buildings and chaotic streets. This print serves as both a historical document and a work of art, capturing the raw emotions and turmoil experienced during these riots. Its inclusion in private collections highlights its significance as an important piece of cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the struggles faced by those fighting for social change throughout history. It stands as a testament to the power of collective action but also serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences that can arise from unchecked unrest.
