EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "To His Royal Highness Fredrick Duke Of York" is a remarkable piece of art that encapsulates the political and social climate of 1803. Created by E. Sanders, this engraving portrays Satan holding a balance symbolizing the preponderance of power or Napoleon Bonaparte's threat. The composition showcases a delicate equilibrium disrupted by contrasting elements. On one end of the balance, we see a hot-air balloon with two figures standing on top, possibly representing Bishop Frederick Duke Of York himself. The lightness of the balloon has caused an imbalance, tilting it dangerously towards an impending crash on the English coast. Behind Satan loom storm clouds, lightning bolts, and a serpent emitting flames - ominous symbols that allude to the gathering storm posed by Napoleon's invasion threat. The intricate details in this artwork are further enhanced by lengthy text passages referencing biblical verses from various books such as Ezekiel and Isaiah. Moreover, amidst these chaotic scenes lies an invitation for unity and hope: "Say unto the cities. . . Behold thy God! Thy God reigneth!". This message suggests that peace will return when people come together under divine guidance. As part of Universal Images Group (UIG), this historical print offers us a glimpse into the past while highlighting significant political tensions during that era. It serves as both a visual representation and thought-provoking commentary on power struggles and their consequences in society.
