EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The New Hatch, 1887" showcases the artistic brilliance of Joseph Swain. In this satirical cartoon from Punch, or the London Charivari, we witness Mr George Goschen, the Conservative Chancellor of the Exchequer, portrayed as a mother hen. The context behind this illustration lies in Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee Year when new coins were being issued. Among them was the double florin coin which unfortunately received widespread criticism for its disappointing and dull design. Through clever caricature and satire, Swain captures both disappointment and humor in this piece. The image serves as a commentary on politics and currency during that era while also highlighting an important royal event - Queen Victoria's jubilee celebration. The monochrome engraving adds to the charm of this nineteenth-century artwork. It depicts Goschen as a protective mother hen overseeing the birth of these new coins with a touch of wit and irony. This print not only reflects on historical events but also showcases Swain's talent as an artist who could skillfully convey complex concepts through his illustrations. "The New Hatch, 1887" is a testament to how art can transcend time by immortalizing significant political figures like George Joachim Goschen within their historical context while providing us with valuable insights into societal sentiments during that period.
