EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Poacher's Fate: Caught Red-Handed" This evocative 18th century print captures the moment of reckoning between a poacher and his pursuers. The poacher, with a guilty expression etched on his face, is caught in the act of taking game from the estate of a wealthy gentleman. The gentleman, dressed in the finery of the era, stands tall and unyielding, his gamekeeper at his side, both ready to ensure justice is served. The poacher's fate hangs in the balance. In this era, poaching was considered a serious offense, punishable by law. The poacher could face the gallows, a grim reminder of the consequences of breaking the law. Alternatively, he could be transported to Australia, a common punishment for those found guilty of various crimes. The promise of a new life in a far-off land, however, was often outweighed by the harsh realities of life in the colonies. This historical print offers a glimpse into the past, a time when the divide between the wealthy and the working class was stark. The gentleman, with his power and privilege, was able to protect his land and livelihood, while the poacher, driven by necessity, risked everything for a meager meal. The print serves as a reminder of the consequences of breaking the law and the social hierarchy that governed society in the 18th century. In conclusion, this print from the Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. It's a poignant reminder of the past, a time when the consequences of one's actions could be severe, and the divide between the classes was as wide as the chasm between night and day.
