EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Apprehension of Jerry Abershaw" takes us back to a time when notorious criminals roamed the streets, and brave peace officers risked their lives to maintain law and order. Created by Browne, Hablot Knight (Phiz), this print captures a pivotal moment in history. Jerry Abershaw, known for his infamous shooting crimes, is depicted here at the height of his notoriety. The artist skillfully portrays the apprehension of this feared criminal with great attention to detail. We can almost feel the tension in the air as Abershaw is cornered by determined law enforcement officials. The scene exudes a sense of apprehension as we witness justice prevailing over evil. The composition draws our eyes towards Abershaw's face, revealing a mix of defiance and fear that only adds to the intensity of the image. Phiz's masterful use of light and shadow further enhances the drama unfolding before us. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for "The Chronicles of Crime or The New Newgate Calendar" by Camden Pelham. It serves as a visual testament to both historical events and artistic talent from that era. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork, we are reminded that even in times plagued by crime and chaos, there were always those willing to stand up against it – heroes who risked everything for peace and justice.
