EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Jamie and the Bishop" showcases a remarkable moment captured in history. Created by the American School in the 19th century, this colour lithograph depicts an intriguing encounter between two prominent figures: Jamie Bennett and the Bishop. In this satirical image, we witness Scottish-born Jamie Bennett aiming a clyster (a syringe-like instrument) at the archbishop while boldly exclaiming, "Hoot awa mon, this is the best weapon in the College of Pharmacy, & mickle dirty water can I fling with it mon!". The phrase "dirty water" cleverly alludes to Bennett's reputation as a journalist practicing sensationalized journalism through his newspaper, the New York Herald. However, not one to be silenced easily, Hughes retaliates against Bennett's audacious act by swinging his crozier (bishop's staff). This comical clash between these two influential individuals highlights their opposing ideologies and serves as a commentary on political power dynamics during that era. Preserved by the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts, USA; this artwork offers us a glimpse into historical satire and political cartoons prevalent during its time. Its vibrant colours and intricate details make it an engaging piece that continues to captivate viewers today.
