EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the bustling streets of 17th century London, where a box maker doubles as a preacher in this satirical broadside. The image captures the essence of a time when tradesmen were not just artisans but also spiritual guides, spreading their message amidst the hustle and bustle of city life.
In 1647, non-conformist preaching was on the rise in London, challenging traditional religious practices and beliefs. This broadside serves as a humorous commentary on this phenomenon, poking fun at the idea of a box maker taking on the role of a preacher. It reflects the complexities and contradictions of society during that era, where industry and religion often intertwined in unexpected ways.
The intricate details captured in this historical snapshot offer us a glimpse into the past - from the elaborate attire worn by the tradesman-preacher to the architectural backdrop of old London town. It is a reminder that history is not just about dates and events but also about everyday people who shaped their world in unique ways.
