King Constable Daguerreotype and the Majesty of the Law
A satirical Daguerreotype portrays a late King Constable as the emblem of law and order amid derelict times. It recalls the Majesty of the Law, laments pauperism, and critiques the Poor Law as it affects a struggling family, a pauper husband and wife facing hunger, workhouse threats, and the moral weight of enforcement.
