EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1809, capturing a scene of flogging at the Old Bailey in London. The image is an engraving from Sir Walter Besant's book "London in the Eighteenth Century", published by A. & C. Black, Ltd. in 1925. In this powerful depiction, we see a man being subjected to corporal punishment as he endures the harsh consequences of his crime within the confines of a law court. Surrounded by onlookers, both inside and outside, it becomes evident that public spectacles like these were not uncommon during this era. The unknown creator skillfully portrays the somber atmosphere with great attention to detail - from the imposing exterior of the Old Bailey building to the railings that separate spectators from those facing punishment. The whipping block and stocks serve as haunting reminders of a time when justice was often delivered through physical pain. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are transported back in time to witness an aspect of British society that has long since been abolished. It serves as a reminder of how far our legal system has evolved over centuries, shedding light on past practices while encouraging gratitude for progress made towards more humane forms of justice. This photograph print offers us a glimpse into London's urban landscape during the eighteenth century and invites contemplation about our collective journey towards creating fairer societies around the world.
