EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "More Reform Blessings, 1832" captures a satirical scene from the 19th century, depicting the political climate surrounding parliamentary reform in England. In this lithograph by an anonymous English School artist, we witness a conversation between a tenant and his landlord. The tenant confronts his landlord about the sudden increase in rent, seeking an explanation for this unexpected burden. The landlord's response is laced with irony as he confesses that raising the rent was actually motivated by his desire to secure the tenant's vote in Parliament under the new Reform Act. This act had extended voting rights to tenants who paid an annual rent of £50 or more. This artwork serves as a humorous commentary on politics and power dynamics during that era. It highlights how politicians would go to great lengths, even manipulating economic circumstances like rents, to gain support from potential voters. Through its caricature style and clever satire, "More Reform Blessings" sheds light on issues such as electoral emancipation and expanding electorates. It offers viewers a glimpse into Georgian society's perception of political reforms while providing entertainment through its humorously exaggerated characters. This piece can be found in private collections today but remains out of copyright. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic value but also as a reflection of societal attitudes towards parliamentary reform and individual rights during this transformative period in British history.
