EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "TO COUNTERFEIT IS DEATH" takes us back to the late 18th century in America. This detailed image showcases a 5 pound note printed by Hall & Sellers in 1774, serving as a stern warning against counterfeit currency. The focal point of the artwork is the Walnut Street Prison, an imposing structure completed just a year before this banknote was created. The colonial-era prison, located in Philadelphia, looms prominently with its sturdy walls and barred windows. Its presence on the banknote serves as a reminder that those who dare to forge money will face severe consequences - death being one of them. The intricate details captured in this print highlight both the craftsmanship involved in creating paper currency at that time and the importance placed on maintaining financial integrity. This historical artifact not only represents early American currency but also reflects societal values and concerns during that period. It symbolizes how seriously counterfeiting was viewed as a crime against society's stability and trust. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, we are transported to an era where every dollar held immense value and forging it could cost someone their life.
