EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in British history as William Pitt, the Younger, addresses the Commons in 1793. The session takes place within the grandeur of the Palace of Westminster, London's iconic seat of power. Prime Minister Pitt stands tall and confident, commanding attention from his fellow politicians and shaping the course of the nation. Seated on the Opposition Front Bench is Charles James Fox, a formidable figure known for his eloquence and political prowess. Speaker Henry Addington presides over this historic gathering from his position in the Chair, ensuring order and decorum within this esteemed chamber. The House of Commons depicted here was painted between 1793 and 1795 by Anton Hickel. This masterpiece now resides in London's National Portrait Gallery as a testament to its enduring significance. Martin Lindsay M. P. , author of "The House of Commons" provides valuable insights into this pivotal period in British politics through his book published by Collins in 1947. As we gaze upon this oil painting brought to life through photography, we are transported back to an era where debates raged passionately within these hallowed walls. It serves as a reminder that politics has always been at the heart of our nation's progress and development.
