EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Patriotick Barber New York Captain Suds" takes us back to February 14,1775, during the tumultuous times of the American Revolution. The mezzotint plate measures 13 7/8 x 10 inches (35.3 x 25.4 cm) and is attributed to Philip Dawe, a British artist known for his satirical works. The image depicts a barbershop in New York City where an intriguing scene unfolds. We see Captain John Crozer, commander of a British ship, seated in the barber's chair while being recognized by Jacob Vredenburgh, the son of Liberty himself. However, as tensions rise between Britain and its colonies, this patriotic barber refuses to finish shaving the captain. This artwork was issued in London during the same year that marked the outbreak of the American Revolution. It serves as a powerful satire on loyalty and defiance against British rule at that time. The photograph captures not only historical significance but also showcases how art can convey political messages through visual storytelling. It invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as patriotism, resistance, and individual choices amidst turbulent times.
