EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Passing Free, Sequel to Demanding Toll" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an engraving by an English School artist. This artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally published in the Illustrated Times on July 2nd, 1870. The image transports us to a time when toll bridges were a common sight. It depicts a scene where individuals are crossing the bridge without having to pay any toll fees. The sequel aspect of this engraving suggests that it is connected to another piece called "Demanding Toll" which perhaps depicted the initial stage of charging fees for crossing. This fine art print captures not only historical significance but also showcases the evolution and progress made over time. The absence of any monetary transaction symbolizes freedom and liberation from financial constraints while traveling across these bridges. As we delve into this artwork, we can appreciate its intricate details and craftsmanship. The attention given to each figure's attire and expressions adds depth and realism to the scene. Through this visual narrative, we gain insight into how society has transformed throughout history. This photograph print serves as a reminder of our past struggles and achievements while highlighting our ability as humans to adapt and overcome obstacles along our journey towards progress.
