EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases a remarkable specimen of the siderographic plan for preventing the forgery of banknotes, submitted to the bankers of the United Kingdom by Perkins, Fairman & Heath. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print is a testament to both artistic skill and innovative technology. The intricate details depicted in this image highlight the importance of preventing counterfeit banknotes during a time when financial security was paramount. The allegorical figure of Britannia stands proudly at the center, symbolizing British patriotism and strength. Surrounding her are various symbols representing trade, money, and British culture. The use of siderography in printing these banknotes was a groundbreaking invention pioneered by Jacob Perkins and perfected by Perkins, Fairman & Heath. This technique involved using steel plates to create highly detailed engravings that were difficult to replicate or forge. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from our private collection, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic beauty but also its significant contribution to banking security. It serves as a reminder that innovation knows no bounds when it comes to protecting our financial systems. This print captures an important moment in British history where artistry met technological advancement with one goal in mind: safeguarding against forgery.
