EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Parliamentary Elections and Electioneering in the Old Days" offers a fascinating glimpse into the political landscape of 19th-century England. Created by an anonymous English School artist, this print captures the energy and chaos surrounding parliamentary elections during that era. The scene depicted is bustling with activity as voters gather on balconies overlooking a crowded street below. Handwritten signs and banners adorn the buildings, showcasing the names of influential figures such as R. Carlile, Lord Eldon, and Orator Hunt. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as politicians engage in passionate electioneering to win over potential supporters. Amidst this lively spectacle, various symbols and characters add depth to the composition. Geese roam freely along the streets while a devilish figure lurks nearby, perhaps representing mischief or corruption within politics. Ravens perch ominously on walls, symbolizing ill omens for some candidates. Notable figures from history make appearances throughout the image: Lord Grey stands tall alongside John Gilpin and Sir Francis Burdett; Daniel O'Connell engages in conversation with William IV; John Bull observes from a distance. This engraving serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression of electoral processes long gone by. It invites viewers to reflect on how politics has evolved over time while highlighting enduring themes such as power struggles, public opinion shaping elections, and the colorful characters who participate in these democratic exercises.
