EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical and thought-provoking cartoon print from 1881 titled "Punch / Infant Electricity" captures a fascinating moment in history when the world was on the brink of a technological revolution. Depicting King Steam and King Coal looking curiously at an infant representing Electricity, the image raises questions about the future and potential growth of this new form of power.
The detailed illustration showcases the intricate details and creativity that went into creating cartoons during this era. The use of anthropomorphism to represent different forms of energy adds a playful element to what could otherwise be a serious topic.
As we look back on this historical artwork, we can't help but wonder what the creators of this print would think if they could see how far electricity has come today. From powering our homes to fueling our technology, electricity has indeed grown into something beyond anyone's wildest imagination.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this unique piece of history for us to enjoy and reflect upon. It serves as a reminder of how innovation and progress have shaped our world over time, leaving us with endless possibilities for what the future may hold.
