EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous and comic engraving titled "Edgar Causes his barge to be rowed by eight kings" captures a whimsical moment in history. Created by the American School in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The artwork was originally commissioned as an illustration for Bill Nye's History of England, published by Lippincott in 1896. In this amusing scene, we see King Edgar of England proudly seated on his extravagant barge while being rowed along by not one or two, but eight kings! The image perfectly combines historical elements with a touch of humor. It playfully depicts how powerful and influential King Edgar must have been during his reign. The attention to detail in this digitally cleaned image is remarkable, showcasing the talents of illustrators W M Goodes and A M Richards. From their intricate work, we can observe various cultural references such as Germanic influences on English history. Transportation plays a significant role in this artwork as well. The barge itself represents an important mode of transport during that era, while the presence of boats and tugboats further emphasizes its significance. Overall, this print offers viewers both amusement and insight into English history through its clever combination of comedy and historical context.
