EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Members of the New House of Commons" takes us back to the 19th century, providing a glimpse into the political landscape of that time. The image showcases a group of distinguished individuals who were elected as representatives from various regions across England. The composition is rich with historical significance, capturing the essence of democracy in action. Amongst those depicted are notable figures such as Mr J. K Cross, Viscount Lymington, Mr HS Northcote, Sir H. M Jackson, Mr A. W Dilke, and many others. Each person represents their respective constituencies including Coventry, Barnstaple, South East Lancashire, Newcastle on Tyne, Exeter, Cambridge, Bolton and Gloucester. The solemn expressions on their faces hint at the weighty responsibilities they bear as members of parliament. Their presence in this hallowed chamber known as the House of Commons signifies their commitment to serving their constituents and shaping national policies for the betterment of society. This print was originally published in The Illustrated London News on 1 May 1880 - an era when illustrated papers played a vital role in disseminating news and information to a wider audience. Preserved within a private collection today but made accessible through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform; it serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical document that allows us to reflect upon our democratic heritage.
