EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense atmosphere of the Salvation Army Riots at Worthing, Sussex in 1884. The engraving, created by an English School artist from the 19th century, showcases a chaotic scene filled with unrest and agitation. In this historic moment frozen in time, we witness a mob gathering outside the Salvation Army barracks. The street scenes are filled with blurred motion as attackers launch their assault on the building. The town hall stands tall in the background, serving as a silent witness to this violent clash between protesters and members of the Salvation Army. The image also depicts other elements that add depth to this dramatic event. A shop nearby seems untouched by chaos while Mr G Head's house becomes another target for attack. In their quest for action and change, rioters even dare to challenge authority by attacking a police station. This powerful engraving was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on August 30th, 1884 - capturing national attention during that time period. It serves as both a historical record and an artistic representation of a significant movement that shook Worthing and Sussex. Through this print from Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, viewers can immerse themselves in this pivotal moment where social tensions collided with religious fervor – forever etching its mark on history.
