EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Parliamentary Elections and Electioneering in the Old Days" takes us back to a tumultuous era of British politics during the 19th century. The image, created by an anonymous English School artist, offers a glimpse into the wild career and revolutionary torrents that characterized election campaigns of that time. The print depicts scenes from various significant dates such as May 25th and June 24th in 1831, as well as August 7th in 1832. It showcases the fervor of electioneering with rival mountebanks vying for attention amidst a sea of voters. The artwork captures the essence of old-fashioned politics with its colorful signs urging citizens to exercise their democratic rights. In this historical context, we witness politicians like Lord Grey and Lord Brougham navigating through complex political landscapes while contending with vested interests. Notably, William IV is also portrayed alongside J Doyle's famous character Mazeppa, adding an intriguing layer to this visual narrative. Through this engraving, we are transported back to a time when parliamentary elections were filled with drama and excitement. It serves as a reminder of how far our electoral processes have evolved over the years while highlighting enduring themes such as power struggles and public participation. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance today.
