Created in 1872 during the Victorian era, this vintage print takes us back to a time when art played a crucial role in depicting and preserving history. The artist, W. Q. Orchardson, A. R. A. , masterfully portrays the concept of 'casus belli, ' or an event that triggers war. The image exudes tension and drama as it showcases individuals engaged in heated discussions within an opulent setting. Their gestures and expressions hint at impending conflict while highlighting the complexities surrounding political decisions that lead nations into war. This retro-styled artwork offers a glimpse into the cultural and artistic sensibilities of its time.
