Blood Money! (colour litho) by Matthew 'Matt' Somerville - A Satirical Glimpse into 19th Century British Society
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, titled "Blood Money!", artist Matthew 'Matt' Somerville takes us on a satirical journey through the social and political landscape of 19th century Britain. The image, originally published in The Tomahawk magazine on February 19,1870, offers a scathing commentary on the exploitation of the working class by wealthy owners. The scene depicts a young girl diligently sewing in a dimly lit room while surrounded by caricatures representing different aspects of society. With its vibrant colors and exaggerated features, the artwork highlights the stark contrast between the poor workers and their affluent counterparts. Somerville's clever use of humor exposes the harsh realities faced by those trapped in laborious industries. While some indulge in lavish meals and drinks, others toil away with little reward or respite. This biting satire serves as a reminder of capitalism's impact on societal divisions during that era. Through his skillful illustration and sharp wit, Somerville invites viewers to reflect upon issues such as wealth inequality and worker exploitation that were prevalent at that time. His work stands as an enduring testament to both artistic talent and socio-political critique. This thought-provoking piece from Fine Art Finder captures not only an important moment in history but also showcases how art can be used as a powerful tool for social commentary.
