EDITORS COMMENTS
The Burning and Plundering of Newgate: A Glimpse into the Chaos of 18th Century London". This photo print, titled "The Burning and Plundering of Newgate and Setting the Felons at Liberty by the Mob" offers a haunting glimpse into a tumultuous event that unfolded in 1780. The engraving, created by an anonymous English artist from the 18th century, is now part of the prestigious Paul Mellon Collection at Yale Center for British Art. Depicting scenes from the infamous Gordon Riots, this image captures a moment of intense social unrest and uprising in Georgian Britain. The rioters, driven by religious conflict and tension between Protestants and Catholics, set fire to Newgate Prison - a symbol of oppression - unleashing chaos upon its walls. In this chaotic scene, criminals are seen being released from their cells as flames engulf the prison. The mob's actions reflect their protest against discrimination towards Protestantism while also expressing their anti-Catholic sentiments. Looting and pillaging can be observed amidst the destructive backdrop as buildings crumble under fiery devastation. Through this powerful visual narrative, we are transported back to a time when faith-based conflicts ignited violent clashes on London streets. This historic event serves as a reminder of how religion has often been used as fuel for societal upheaval throughout history. Bridgeman Images allows us to explore these significant moments through art prints like this one – capturing not only historical events but also shedding light on themes such as crime, freedom, destruction, and resilience within society.
