EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to 19th century England. Created by renowned artist John Leech, this engraving showcases his exceptional talent for combining history with humor. In this comical scene, we witness a group of English soldiers engaged in an amusing encounter. The central figure, a dashing gentleman dressed in traditional military attire, appears to be fleeing from his comrades who are brandishing swords and other weapons. With a mischievous grin on his face, he seems determined to outrun them as they chase him across the countryside. Leech's satirical approach adds another layer of intrigue to the image. Through clever caricature and witty details, he playfully pokes fun at the concept of warfare during that era. The exaggerated expressions on each character's face evoke laughter while also shedding light on the absurdity of conflict. This historical artwork not only captures the essence of 19th century England but also serves as a reminder of Leech's significant contribution to literature and art during his time. Published in "The Comic History of England". Volume I by Gilbert A A Beckett, this print exemplifies Leech's ability to blend entertainment with insightful commentary. As we gaze upon "Settling the Bill" we are transported back in time - witnessing both an engaging narrative and an artistic masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences today.
