EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant aspect of censorship in the 19th century. Titled "Censorship in the 19th century: Under the Old Regime, the service is called 'Black Cabinet'" this engraving by an unknown artist provides a glimpse into a secretive world. The image showcases individuals diligently examining private correspondence for security reasons. During this era, communication was closely monitored to maintain control and prevent potential threats to those in power. The 'Black Cabinet' was responsible for scrutinizing letters and other forms of personal communication, ensuring that no sensitive or subversive information would be disseminated. The composition of the engraving exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. The figures are depicted huddled together, engrossed in their task while surrounded by stacks of papers and documents. Their faces remain hidden, symbolizing both anonymity and authority. This artwork serves as a reminder of how governments have historically sought to regulate information flow for political purposes. It sheds light on the delicate balance between individual privacy rights and national security concerns prevalent during that time. Stefano Bianchetti's expert restoration work has brought this historical artifact back to life, allowing us to reflect upon an important chapter in human history when censorship played a pivotal role in shaping societies.
