EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "A Lesson in Empire making" takes us back to the year 1897, when Sydney Prior Hall created this lithograph for The Graphic. This thought-provoking illustration captures a significant moment in history, depicting an intriguing scene of politicians and influential figures engaged in a lesson on empire building. In the image, we see Mr. Cecil Rhodes, a prominent figure in British imperialism, explaining the intricacies of empire-making to his attentive audience. Surrounding him are other notable individuals such as Sir William Harcourt and members of the South Africa Inquiry Committee. Maps adorn the walls of this grand school building, symbolizing the vast territories that were part of the British Empire during that era. This artwork provides a glimpse into an important aspect of colonial history - how empires were formed and maintained through political strategies and territorial acquisitions. It invites viewers to reflect upon questions surrounding power dynamics, exploitation, and cultural assimilation. Through its intricate details and historical significance, "A Lesson in Empire making" serves as both an educational tool and a reminder of past events that have shaped our world today. As we observe this engraving from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, it sparks curiosity about our own understanding of empire-building processes throughout history while encouraging us to critically examine their impact on societies worldwide.
