EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage engraving, titled "The Eclipse At An End - And Political Tilting Discovered" we are transported back to London in 1789. The scene depicts a moment of political intrigue and whimsy, beautifully captured by artist Edward Thurlow. At the center of the image, we see a woman, possibly Queen Charlotte herself, riding on a donkey labeled WP (William Pitt), adorned with a lion skin. Above them looms a partially eclipsed sun representing George III, symbolizing the end of an era. On the right side of the print, two men seated on a horse wear feathers associated with the Prince of Wales. The horse appears to rear up but is held down by a weight attached to its front left leg. This historical artwork not only showcases traditional illustrative techniques but also offers us insight into the political climate and power dynamics during that time period. It evokes feelings of nostalgia and transports us to an era long gone. With its romantic charm and intricate details, this antique engraving invites viewers to delve into history and explore the complexities of politics through art. It serves as both a reminder of our past and an appreciation for artistic expression from centuries ago.
