EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous engraving titled "1849, The fashionable world taking its exercise in Hyde Park" captures the lively scene of mid-19th century England. Created by Richard Doyle and featured in his book "Manners and Customs of ye Englyshe" this image showcases the social dynamics and peculiarities of Victorian society. In Hyde Park, a popular gathering place for the elite, we see an array of carriages filled with well-dressed individuals enjoying their daily exercise routine. Dogs accompany their owners, adding to the liveliness of the scene. Amidst this display of wealth and refinement, a beggar stands on the sidelines hoping for some generosity from these high-society figures. Doyle's satirical caricature highlights not only English manners but also pokes fun at German culture. A group of Germans can be seen in one carriage labeled with repetitive "German" text, emphasizing their presence as foreigners amidst British society. The artist's attention to detail brings life to each character depicted in this amusing print. From mischievous children causing mischief to elegant ladies conversing inside luxurious carriages, every element adds depth to this entertaining snapshot of 19th-century London life. With its blend of humor and social commentary, this engraving offers a glimpse into both English customs and European society during that time period. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly refined settings like Hyde Park, there is always room for satire and amusement.
