EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Non Angli sed Angeli forent si fuissent Christiani" transports us back to 19th century England, offering a glimpse into the country's historical and religious context. Created by the talented artist John Leech for Gilbert A. Beckett's "The Comic History of England" this monochrome engraving showcases Leech's comical genius. In this satirical artwork, we see a group of Englishmen depicted as angels, humorously suggesting that if they had embraced Christianity, they would have been heavenly beings rather than mere mortals. The image beautifully captures the essence of English literature and its witty approach to social commentary. The composition features men and children dressed in traditional attire, their expressions ranging from bemusement to amusement. This clever caricature highlights the concept of national identity intertwined with religion during that era. As we delve into this piece, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within England's cultural fabric. It serves as a reminder that art has always played a significant role in reflecting societal values and beliefs. This remarkable print is an invaluable addition to any collection or exhibition seeking to explore 19th-century British satire and artistic expression. Its intricate details and thought-provoking message make it an enduring testament to John Leech's talent as an artist and his ability to capture both humor and social critique in one frame.
