EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant and chaotic scene captured in this handcoloured copperplate engraving by George Cruikshank transports us to the Fete of St. Louis, where the riff-raff are seen competing for bread and wine. As Dick, Jenkins, and the Halibuts look on in amazement, they witness the Canaille in all their glory - a true spectacle of life in Paris during the 19th century.
The energy of the crowd is palpable as people from all walks of life come together to partake in this traditional event filled with joy and competition. The atmosphere is alive with laughter and excitement as participants vie for prizes and rewards amidst a sea of faces.
Cruikshank's attention to detail brings each character to life, showcasing the diversity within the crowd - from young children eagerly reaching for a piece of bread to older individuals savoring a sip of wine. The artist's skillful rendering captures not only the physicality but also the emotions running high during this festive occasion.
This engraving serves as a window into a bygone era, offering us a glimpse into the traditions and customs that defined daily life in Paris at that time. It reminds us of the simple pleasures found in community gatherings and celebrations, where even those considered "riff-raff" can find moments of happiness and camaraderie.
