EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant and captivating print titled "Be Just and Fear Not!" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a humorous yet scathing satire on British colonialism. Created by Matthew "Matt". Somerville, this colour lithograph was originally published in The Tomahawk magazine on April 16,1870. The image is filled with allegorical symbols and caricatures that depict the grievances of the Indian people under British rule. Britannia, personifying Britain herself, stands tall as an embodiment of power and authority. Meanwhile, a comical Nawab of Bengal represents the Indian perspective. This satirical cartoon cleverly captures the tensions between the British Empire and its colonies during that time. It highlights issues such as political claims made by Queen Victoria over India while also mocking European influence in Asia. Through this artwork's witty composition and detailed illustrations, it offers a glimpse into Victorian politics and society. The artist skillfully combines elements of humor with biting social commentary to shed light on the complex dynamics between colonizer and colonized. As we observe this historical piece today, it serves as a reminder of both Britain's imperial past and its impact on countries like India. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only Matt Somerville's artistic talent but also invites contemplation about our shared history as nations within an ever-changing global landscape.
