EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Our Own Times, 1846" takes us back to the fascinating era of the 19th century in Britain. Created by an unknown artist, this engraving offers a glimpse into the political landscape of colonialism and power dynamics during that time. In this scene, we see a statesman sitting at his desk, surrounded by elegant furniture and illuminated by a desk lamp. His hand gestures indicate his authority as he engages in politics and makes important decisions for the nation. The print cleverly uses satire to comment on the state of affairs during this period. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to the image, transporting us back to a time when such engravings were popular forms of visual storytelling. As we explore every detail captured within this print - from the intricate furniture design to the politician's facial expression - we are reminded of how history has shaped our present. Thanks to The Print Collector's preservation efforts, we can still appreciate these historical artifacts today. This particular piece invites us to reflect on both British history and global colonialism while appreciating its artistic value as an engraving from Pictorial Times in 1846.
