EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in British political history - "The House of Commons in Sir Robert Walpole's Administration". Engraved by R. Page and published in 1833, this lithograph is part of "The Works of William Hogarth" collection. In the image, we are transported back to the early 18th century, where Sir Robert Walpole, the first Prime Minister of Great Britain, engages in conversation with Arthur Onslow, the Speaker of the House. The original painting dates back to 1730 and showcases a pivotal period during Walpole's administration. Walpole's influence as a Whig politician is evident through his commanding presence and confident demeanor. His wig symbolizes his status as one of the most powerful figures in Parliament at that time. Onslow attentively listens to Walpole's words, highlighting their close working relationship. This portrait provides us with an intimate glimpse into the inner workings of British politics during this era. It serves as a reminder of how influential individuals like Walpole shaped government policies and decisions that impacted society at large. Preserved within a private collection today, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also Hogarth's artistic talent for capturing intricate details and human expressions. As we delve into this image from Fine Art Finder via Bridgeman Images, we are transported back centuries ago to witness an important chapter unfold within Westminster's hallowed halls.
