EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ZENGER AND BRADFORD, 1730s. The Rival Editors" takes us back to the bustling streets of New York City in the early 18th century. In this scene, we witness a moment of rivalry between two prominent figures in American journalism - William Bradford and John Peter Zenger. The image showcases William Bradford, a well-known publisher and editor, strolling past Zenger's printing office with an air of confidence. Dressed in his distinguished coat and leaning on his cane, Bradford exudes authority and success. Meanwhile, Zenger's office door stands open as if inviting readers into the world of news. Howard Pyle's pen and ink drawing beautifully captures the essence of this historical era while adding a touch of patriotic sentiment. The late 19th-century artwork pays homage to these influential men who played significant roles in shaping public opinion during colonial times. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the power that journalism holds in society. These rival editors were at the forefront of disseminating information to their fellow colonists, contributing to the intellectual growth and development of North America. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, dedicated individuals like Zenger and Bradford paved the way for freedom of speech by fearlessly challenging societal norms through their work as journalists.
