The Bostonians Paying the Excise Man, or Tarring and Feathering
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful mezzotint satire that captures a pivotal moment in American history. Created by Philip Dawe in 1774, this print depicts the infamous treatment given to John Malcom, an unpopular Commissioner of Customs at Boston during the time of the Boston Tea Party in 1773. In this scene, we witness the forceful actions taken by angry colonists against Malcom, who represented British authority and taxation. The image portrays a mob of men surrounding him, with feathers and tar ready to be applied as symbols of humiliation and protest. This act of tarring and feathering was a cruel form of punishment used by revolutionaries to publicly shame those associated with oppressive policies. Dawe's artwork serves as a visual reminder of the tension between English rule and colonial resistance during this transformative period. It highlights both the determination and brutality exhibited by American colonists fighting for their rights and freedom. This historic print from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection offers us insight into one chapter of America's struggle for independence. It allows us to reflect upon how ordinary individuals were driven to extreme measures in their pursuit of liberty against unjust taxation policies imposed upon them by British authorities like John Malcom.
