EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Oliver Goldsmith's renowned play, "She Stoops to Conquer or The Mistakes of a Night". Illustrated by the talented Hugh Thomson in 1912, this image brings to life the wit and humor of Goldsmith's work. In Act 2, Scene 1, we find ourselves amidst laughter as a group of men gather around, engrossed in an amusing tale. One man, with a mischievous grin on his face, appears to be recounting the story of Old Grouse in the gun-room. Goldsmith's play was first performed in London in 1773 and has since become a classic piece of British literature. Known for its clever dialogue and comedic situations, it showcases the playwright's skillful storytelling abilities. This particular illustration beautifully captures the essence of the play's setting - an elegant drawing room filled with lively characters. Thomson's artistic talent shines through in this detailed drawing; every expression and gesture is expertly rendered. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to the vibrant world of eighteenth-century theater. It serves as a testament to both Goldsmith's enduring legacy as one of Britain's greatest playwrights and Thomson's ability to bring literary works to life through his illustrations. This print is not only a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into history - reminding us of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire artists today.
