Adam Warner Hooted as a Wizard
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and evocative photograph from the 1870s, captured by H.B. Roberts and exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1872. The image depicts an old man named Adam Warner, who was often hooted and harassed by the people in his community due to unfounded suspicions of witchcraft and magic. In the photograph, Warner is seen seated on a street corner, surrounded by children who appear to be fascinated by him. He is dressed as a wizard, with a long white beard, pointed hat, and a book in hand. The children, clad in their Sunday best, are gathered around him, peering curiously at the pages of the book. Despite the innocent curiosity of the children, the atmosphere surrounding Warner is far from light-hearted. The suspicious and judgmental glances of the adults in the background are palpable, their prejudice and harassment casting a shadow over the scene. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the prejudices and suspicions that were rampant during the Victorian era, particularly towards those perceived as different or unusual. The image invites us to reflect on the power of perception and the impact of societal norms on individuals, even in the face of innocence and curiosity. The exhibition of "Adam Warner Hooted as a Wizard" at the Royal Academy was a bold statement against the societal prejudices of the time, shedding light on the plight of those unfairly targeted and marginalized. The photograph continues to resonate with audiences today, serving as a reminder of the importance of empathy, understanding, and acceptance in the face of difference and uncertainty.
