EDITORS COMMENTS
. This enchanting print captures a moment frozen in time, depicting the dramatic scene from William Ralston's engraving titled "Your Own Peter". The artwork, dating back to 1878, showcases a captivating tableau vivant that tells a tale of personal violence and emotional confrontation. In this intriguing composition, we witness two figures locked in an intense battle. On one side stands a courageous lady, her lips raised in defiance as she dares to confront her adversary. With great prying eyes observing their every move, she refuses to be silenced by societal expectations. Opposite her is the enigmatic Peter himself – an elegant gentleman caught up in the midst of this tumultuous clash.

It invites viewers to ponder upon the complexities inherent in human interactions and encourages us all to embrace our own inner Peters when confronted with adversity or injustice. With its rich historical significance and timeless message about resilience and self-expression, "Your Own Peter
