EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sending Round the Hat, 1887" by Joseph Swain captures a significant moment in history during Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee Year. The artwork depicts John Bull, symbolizing the British people, generously opening his purse to make a donation to the Church of England. At this time, there was a proposal to construct a new Church House in honor of the Established Church, and subscriptions were being solicited. However, this noble endeavor faced criticism due to the dire poverty experienced by many clergy members within the Church of England. The cartoon serves as an allegorical representation of this controversy surrounding poverty and Christianity. The engraving showcases intricate details that bring out both satire and caricature elements. It portrays John Bull as a generous figure with deep-rooted religious values while highlighting the struggles faced by those serving in religious roles. As we delve into this nineteenth-century masterpiece created by Joseph Swain under Sir John Tenniel's guidance, it offers us insight into societal dynamics during Queen Victoria's reign. This heritage image partnership between creators Tenniel and Swain allows us to explore themes such as monarchy, religion, social class disparities, and philanthropy through their artistic lens. Through this powerful visual narrative captured on paper over a century ago, we are reminded of our historical roots while contemplating issues still relevant today – compassion for those less fortunate and society's responsibility towards its most vulnerable members.
