EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from 1819 captures the intense and dramatic scene of the "Manchester Bull-hunt". In this historic artwork, a powerful bull with the head of John Bull, symbolizing British authority, is seen tossing a member of the Manchester Yeomanry into the air while attacking a magistrate. Behind them, a group of reformers led by Henry Hunt can be observed holding a paper inscribed with "Coron[er's] Inquest" suggesting their demand for justice. The intricate illustrative technique used in this engraved image adds to its nostalgic charm and evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era long gone. The retro styling transports us back to Victorian times when such engravings were popular forms of art and culture. As we gaze upon this aged print, it serves as a reminder of historical events that shaped our society. It speaks volumes about the struggles faced by ordinary people against oppressive forces during that time. This artwork stands as an important testament to the fight for reform and social change. With its rich history and traditional aesthetic appeal, this antique engraving offers viewers a glimpse into Manchester's past—a city known for its resilience and determination in pursuing justice. Let us appreciate this remarkable piece as it showcases both artistic skill and significant moments in history.
