EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "We went where, in the Civil Courts, Uncourtly and uncivil, Just-asses sat in wigs to judge The followers of the Devil" by Isaac Cruikshank depicts a satirical scene from the legal system. In this humorous illustration, we see a group of judges referred to as "Just-asses" sitting on a bench wearing wigs while passing judgment on individuals who are labeled as followers of the Devil. The artist's intention is clear - to criticize and mock the civil courts for their perceived lack of fairness and civility. Through his clever wordplay and visual satire, Cruikshank highlights what he sees as absurdities within the judicial system. The detailed black-and-white engraving captures both the comical nature of the scene and its underlying critique. It serves as a reminder that justice should be impartial and fair rather than influenced by personal biases or societal prejudices. This artwork not only provides historical insight into early 19th-century England but also offers a glimpse into how humor was used to comment on social issues during that time period. Its inclusion in Walks about Town, a Poem in Two Cantos with Notes and a Memoir of Authors further emphasizes its significance as part of an artistic commentary on society. Overall, this satirical cartoon invites viewers to reflect upon notions of justice, law enforcement, and societal norms through wit and caricature.
