EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the courtroom scene of the infamous Mr M Naughten trial at Old Bailey. The trial, which took place in 1843, centered around the assassination attempt on Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel by Mr Naughten, who was fixated on the esteemed politician. However, tragically it was not Peel who fell victim to Naughten's bullet but rather his secretary, Mr Edward Drummond.
The trial became notorious for its examination of insanity as a defense plea. Despite pleading insanity and being deemed unfit to stand trial, Mr Naughten's case continues to be cited today as a landmark legal precedent.
In this sketch taken from the courtroom during the trial proceedings, we see the tension and drama unfold as justice is sought for the heinous crime committed. The historical significance of this moment is palpable in every stroke of the artist's pen.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of the most sensational trials in British history. The legacy of Mr M Naughten and his ill-fated attempt on Sir Robert Peel's life lives on through this powerful depiction captured by Rights Managed.
