EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and humorous lithograph, titled "Surveying for Domesday Book. A. D. 1080-1086" captures a comical scene from English history with a touch of satire. Created by Arthur Moreland in the early 20th century, this artwork is part of the private collection. The image depicts a group of surveyors diligently working on compiling information for the famous Domesday Book, commissioned by King William I in the late 11th century. The book aimed to record all assets and properties across England, providing valuable insights into land ownership and taxation. However, what sets this illustration apart is its playful approach to history. With exaggerated facial expressions and exaggerated features, it adds an element of humor to an otherwise serious subject matter. It offers viewers a lighthearted glimpse into the challenges faced by these surveyors as they meticulously documented every detail. Moreland's satirical drawing cleverly pokes fun at both English and German cultures through caricatured figures representing different regions within Europe. This witty commentary showcases his artistic talent in combining historical accuracy with comedic elements. Overall, this colorful lithograph provides an entertaining take on one of England's most significant historical events while showcasing Moreland's unique style and ability to infuse humor into his work.
