EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "POLLUTION CARTOON, 1866. Deaths Dispensary" takes us back to a significant era in American history. Created in 1866, this allegorical cartoon serves as a powerful reminder of the devastating consequences of water pollution on public health during that time. The image portrays an exterior scene where a family stands near a contaminated well, symbolizing the source of disease caused by polluted water. The grim reaper personifies death itself and hovers over the group with his menacing presence. A father, mother, daughter, and sister are depicted alongside other individuals from various social backgrounds who have fallen victim to illness and infection. The artist's intention becomes clear as he highlights the political aspect of this issue through clever symbolism. The crown atop the jug represents England's responsibility for introducing cholera to America through contaminated water sources. This visual commentary aims to raise awareness about the urgent need for political action against pollution. Intricately detailed and thought-provoking, this Victorian-era cartoon captures both the fear and urgency surrounding public health concerns at that time. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come in our efforts to combat environmental pollution while also urging us not to forget past lessons learned.
