EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous engraving, titled "Vulcan Arming Neptune" captures a satirical moment in the course of construction of a naval vessel. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this cartoon from Punch magazine showcases wit and cleverness. In this comical scene, Vulcan, the Roman god of fire and metalworking, is seen arming Neptune, the god of the sea. The image depicts Vulcan working diligently to equip Neptune with all he needs for battle. With his strength and enterprise evident in every stroke of his hammer, Vulcan ensures that Neptune's navy is well-prepared for combat. The satirical drawing offers a scathing satire on both naval and military forces. It playfully mocks their pompous nature while highlighting their importance in society. The caricatured figures add to the humor as they represent various armed forces personnel such as troops and platoons. With its clever composition and attention to detail, this print provides viewers with an amusing glimpse into the world of naval warfare during April 1862. Its witty commentary on power dynamics within these institutions makes it a captivating piece that continues to entertain audiences today. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide, this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate the artistic brilliance behind this satirical masterpiece without mentioning any commercial use or specific company involved.
