EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, titled "Stocks and Whipping Post" from the Boswell Collection, offers a glimpse into the past with its depiction of two wooden structures that once served as instruments of punishment during medieval times. The image, believed to have been captured around the year 1900, shows the stocks and whipping post nestled behind ornate railings, their low, ivy-covered roofs providing a stark contrast against the clear blue sky. The stocks, a wooden frame with holes for securing the wrists or ankles of offenders, were used for public humiliation and shaming. The whipping post, a tall, wooden pillar with a horizontal beam, was used for corporal punishment. The presence of a lantern atop the whipping post suggests that it may have been used for nighttime punishments. The ivy that covers the roofs adds a touch of beauty to the otherwise grim structures, hinting at the passage of time and the eventual reclamation of nature. This photograph, a part of the Dickens Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of punishment and serves as a reminder of the evolution of societal norms and values.
