EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Comic Early English History: William the Conqueror, The New Forest, Curfew Bell" takes us on a whimsical journey through time. Created by an anonymous 20th-century English School artist, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The image depicts a comical scene from early English history, showcasing the legendary figure of William the Conqueror in his conquest of England. Set in the enchanting backdrop of the New Forest, we witness King William I planting trees while simultaneously dealing with fires caused by curfew bells. With its humorous undertones and amusing illustrations, this artwork was originally featured in Ernest Nister's book "Comic Snap Shots from Early English History". Published around 1904, it aimed to entertain readers with its lighthearted take on historical events. The use of vivid colors and intricate details brings this comic strip-like illustration to life. It combines elements of botany, natural history, science, and humor to create an entertaining narrative that appeals to both young and old alike. As we delve into this snapshot from pre-invasion England, we are reminded not only of our rich historical past but also how art can transcend time and bring joy through laughter. This piece serves as a delightful reminder that even within serious historical events lies room for amusement and entertainment.
