EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous engraving from the 19th century captures the satirical essence of the state of the Thames River and its tributary. The image, titled "Thames and his Tributary" is a scathing satire that highlights the filth and pollution plaguing these waterways during that time. The cartoon, originally published in Punch magazine in October 1861, depicts Father Thames anxiously observing his polluted river while standing on an embankment. The artist's attention to detail emphasizes the filthy state of the water, with debris floating around and a general air of angst surrounding this subject of general complaint. Through this satirical drawing, viewers are invited to reflect on both the fear and initiative needed to address such environmental issues. The caricature serves as a reminder of society's responsibility towards protecting our natural resources. Blessed with wit and irony, this satirical cartoon by Thwaites offers a glimpse into Victorian society's perception of their polluted river. It showcases how humor can be used as a powerful tool to shed light on pressing matters while entertaining audiences at the same time. This digitally cleaned print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail within this historical artwork. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded not only of past concerns but also encouraged to take action against present-day pollution challenges faced by rivers worldwide.
