EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Captive Family ca 1783 Etching state letters" takes us back in time to the late 18th century. The image showcases a poignant scene, beautifully captured through the art of etching. The composition depicts a family held captive, their faces filled with despair and longing for freedom. The artist skillfully portrays their emotions, allowing viewers to empathize with their plight. It is evident that this artwork aims to shed light on the harsh realities faced by families during this tumultuous period. Measuring approximately 13 1/4 x 9 7/8 inches (337 x 251 cm), this print carries immense historical significance. Created by Robert Blyth, a British artist who lived from 1750 to 1784, it is based on an original work by John Hamilton Mortimer (1740–1779). Mortimer was known for his ability to capture raw human emotion in his paintings and prints. This particular piece transports us into the heart of London's Eastbourne neighborhood during the late Georgian era. It serves as a reminder of the social inequalities and political unrest prevalent at that time. While we do not have information about its commercial use or origin beyond being part of Liszt Collection, this photograph print undoubtedly holds great value as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical artifact. Its presence in any collection would enrich our understanding of past struggles while reminding us never to take our own freedoms for granted.
