EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a moment of tension and anticipation as a policeman waits behind a wall, truncheon in hand, ready to ambush. The image is steeped in historical significance, reflecting the law enforcement practices of 1830s Britain.
The term "peeler" was often used to refer to police officers during this time period, derived from Sir Robert Peel who established the first organized police force in London. This particular peeler is depicted with a sense of readiness and determination, highlighting the challenges faced by law enforcement officials during this era.
The use of satire in this image adds an additional layer of complexity, inviting viewers to consider the power dynamics at play between authority figures and those they are meant to protect. By portraying the policeman in a position of concealment and potential aggression, the artist prompts us to question notions of justice and control.
Overall, this print serves as a thought-provoking reminder of how history has shaped our understanding of policing and societal order. It invites us to reflect on themes of surveillance, protection, and resistance that continue to resonate today.
