EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the City Chanters taking part in the Wilkes and Liberty Riots. Inspired by the renowned English politician John Wilkes, who symbolized free speech, this artwork stands as a powerful testament to the fight for individual liberties. The original engraving by Okey, published in 1775 after an original work by John Collett, beautifully portrays the fervor and determination of those who rallied behind Wilkes. Set against a landscape backdrop that exudes British charm and European elegance, this image transports us back to a time when England was embroiled in political turmoil. With its format emphasizing both width and height, it invites viewers to immerse themselves fully into this historical narrative. The composition's focal point is undeniably Wilkes himself—a figure whose influence reverberated far beyond his era. His presence commands attention amidst a sea of passionate protesters clamoring for their rights. This photograph from Hulton Archive/Getty Images serves as an invaluable reminder of our collective struggle for freedom of expression. Displayed within its elegant box frame measuring 279 square inches, this print becomes an exquisite addition to any art collection or historical display. Its authenticity is further emphasized by referencing its original identification numbers: 34844 (format), 16083 p wilkes john politician (original artwork), and 2668034 (Hulton Archive reference)
