EDITORS COMMENTS
City Justice, 1880: A Glimpse into the World of Sir Robert Walter Carden". In this print titled "City Justice, 1880" we are transported back to the vibrant era of the late 19th century. The artist behind this remarkable piece is none other than Spy (Leslie Ward), renowned for his caricatures in Vanity Fair. The subject of his artistry is Alderman Sir Robert Walter Carden, a distinguished British banker, politician, and magistrate. Sir Robert Walter Carden's illustrious career spanned various domains of public service. Serving as Lord Mayor of London from 1857-1858, he left an indelible mark on the city's governance during his tenure. As a Conservative member of Parliament for Gloucester and later Barnstaple, he played an influential role in shaping British politics. The portrait captures Sir Robert with great finesse - his white beard and dignified countenance exuding wisdom and authority befitting a man deeply involved in matters of law and justice. Seated on the bench within a court setting, he personifies fairness and impartiality that define our legal system. This chromolithograph print allows us to appreciate not only Sir Robert's political achievements but also offers insight into Victorian society at large. It serves as a testament to the power wielded by statesmen like him during that period. As we gaze upon this historical artifact created by Spy (Leslie Ward), we are reminded of how individuals such as Sir Robert Walter Carden shaped their countries through their dedication to public service and unwavering commitment to justice.
