EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Go the Rounds d ye say? d-y what d ye mean by that?" captures a humorous and satirical scene from the 18th century. Created by an unknown artist, this watercolour artwork is part of The Cornwall Militia collection. Depicting characters stationed in Plymouth during the French Revolutionary Wars, the image showcases a half-dressed officer complaining in his quarters. The caption adds to the comical atmosphere as it quotes him saying, "Can't you hear it rain, you scoundrel?". This caricature offers a glimpse into military life during that period and highlights the lighter side of army routines. With its clever use of satire and humor, it provides an entertaining commentary on the experiences of officers and soldiers. The National Army Museum in London houses this intriguing piece of art which exemplifies both artistic talent and historical significance. Bridgeman Images has made this delightful print available for public viewing. As we observe this artwork, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its ability to transport us back to a different era. It serves as a testament to human creativity and our enduring fascination with history's quirks and idiosyncrasies.
