The First Militia. A. D. 893
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and comical lithograph by Arthur Moreland that captures the essence of historical satire. Set in England during the reign of King Alfred the Great, this satirical drawing humorously depicts the formation of the first militia. With its vivid colors and exaggerated characters, Moreland's artwork brings to life a moment from history with a touch of whimsy. The cartoonish style adds an element of light-heartedness to what would otherwise be a serious subject matter. The scene showcases King Alfred as he attempts to assemble his army, but instead finds himself surrounded by an array of eccentric individuals who are eager to join his cause. From bumbling knights to enthusiastic peasants, each character embodies a different aspect of English society at that time. Through clever visual storytelling, Moreland pokes fun at not only English culture but also Germanic influences on England during that era. The inclusion of German soldiers in this satirical cartoon adds another layer of comedic commentary on European politics and alliances. "The First Militia. A. D. 893" is not just a humorous illustration; it serves as a reminder that even in times of conflict and strife, there is always room for laughter and levity. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate history through the lens of comedy while still appreciating its artistic merit.
