EDITORS COMMENTS
The hand-coloured etching titled "Discipline a la Kenyon" by James Gillray, published in 1797, captures a significant moment in history with its satirical depiction of the zero-tolerance policy towards illegal gambling adopted by Lord Chief Justice Kenyon. The artwork references the prosecution of Lady Buckinghamshire for the theft of a faro bank from her house, which led to her public humiliation. In this image, we see Lady Buckinghamshire tied to a horse and cart as she endures her punishment. Surrounding her are jeering crowds, eager to witness her disgrace. Her naked back is exposed and vulnerable as she is pelted with rubbish while being paraded through the streets. The scene also includes various elements such as pillories, stocks, and placards that symbolize societal warning against criminal behavior. Gillray's caricature highlights not only the physical pain inflicted upon Lady Buckinghamshire but also serves as social commentary on the consequences faced by those who engage in illicit activities during Georgian times. Through his intricate engravings and attention to detail, he presents an unflinching portrayal of public punishment and its impact on both individuals and society at large. This print from Fine Art Finder offers us a glimpse into an era where justice was harshly meted out publicly for all to see. It reminds us of how far our legal system has evolved since then while serving as a testament to the power of art in capturing historical moments and sparking important conversations about societal norms and
