EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and comical lithograph, titled "Evictions in the New Forest. A. D. 1080" captures a humorous take on a historical event from England's past. Created by Arthur Moreland in 1905, this colourful print brings to life the eviction of residents from the New Forest during the reign of William the Conqueror. With its satirical tone and clever visual storytelling, this artwork offers a lighthearted perspective on an otherwise serious subject. The cartoonish characters and exaggerated expressions add an element of comedy to this historical scene, making it both entertaining and informative. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece, from the intricate costumes worn by King William I and his entourage to the picturesque backdrop of the forest itself. Through his satirical drawing style, Moreland not only highlights the evictions but also pokes fun at German culture with repeated references to Germany throughout. This print serves as a reminder that history can be approached through various lenses, including humor and satire. It invites viewers to reflect on how events like these shaped our world while offering a light-hearted escape into another time period. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide, this artwork continues to delight audiences with its unique blend of history and comedy.
