Returning Justice Lifts Aloft Her Scale - A Satirical Masterpiece of Political Commentary
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Returning Justice Lifts Aloft Her Scale" is a remarkable example of political satire from the early 19th century. Published in London in 1821 by G. Humphrey, this engraving on paper by Theodore Lane offers a fascinating glimpse into the turbulent times of British politics. The image portrays an allegorical representation of justice personified as a majestic figure holding her scale high above her head. Resting upon the pillar that supports her is none other than the Duke of Brougham, symbolizing power and influence. Inside a cage sits Lord Denman, adding another layer to this intricate composition. Through clever symbolism and comical elements, Lane's artwork subtly critiques the political landscape of his time. The inclusion of prominent figures such as Brunswick, Alderman Wood, Queen Caroline, and Bergami adds depth to its satirical nature. With meticulous detail and expert craftsmanship evident in every stroke, this engraving showcases Lane's artistic prowess while also serving as a historical document reflecting societal attitudes towards power dynamics during that era. Now preserved at the London Metropolitan Archives within the City of London collection, this intriguing piece invites viewers to delve into its layers of meaning and appreciate both its artistic merit and social commentary.
