EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the eerie tale of "Bishop Hatto and the Rats" a legendary story brought to life by Henry Marsh in 1866-67. Inspired by John La Farge's original work, this haunting image depicts a scene filled with fear and alarm. In this concept piece, Bishop Hatto is seen chased by an army of rats, symbolizing his impending doom. The intense expression on the bishop's face reflects his fright as he tries to escape from the relentless pursuit of these menacing creatures. The dark shadows surrounding him add to the sinister atmosphere, emphasizing his vulnerability in this terrifying encounter. "Bishop Hatto and the Rats" draws inspiration from Robert Southey's poem that narrates a cautionary tale about divine retribution.

Henry Marsh skillfully engraves every detail in this portrait, capturing both the legend itself and its impact on American culture during that time period. As part of Heritage Art collection at The Met Museum, this print showcases not only artistic excellence but also preserves our rich heritage. Through its powerful imagery and symbolism, "Bishop Hatto and the Rats" continues to captivate audiences today with its timeless message about morality and accountability within Christianity.
