The House
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and humorous print that takes us back to A. D. 1265, offering a satirical glimpse into the political landscape of medieval England. Created by Arthur Moreland in the early 20th century, this color lithograph showcases his talent for combining visual art with comedy. The image portrays a chaotic scene within the House of Commons, where King Henry III presides over an assembly filled with eccentric characters and absurd situations. With its witty depiction of parliamentarians engaged in comical antics, "The House" serves as both a joke and a scathing satire on the institution of politics. Moreland's illustration was originally featured in "Humors of History" published around 1905. This work aimed to entertain readers by presenting historical events through a humorous lens. Through this piece, we witness how humor has been used throughout history to shed light on societal issues and challenge authority. "The House" not only provides amusement but also offers insight into British culture during that time period. It reflects the tensions between England and Germany while highlighting common stereotypes associated with each country. This print from Fine Art Finder captures Moreland's artistic brilliance in blending history, humor, and social commentary. It invites viewers to appreciate the power of satire as it transcends time and continues to resonate even in contemporary society
