EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous engraving captures the excitement and frenzy of the public upon the appearance of Miss Lind, also known as the Swedish Nightingale, in 1849. The image, created by Richard Doyle, depicts a scene from Manners and Customs of ye Englyshe drawn from ye Quick. It showcases an early Victorian audience at a theatre in London's Haymarket district. The caricature-like figures in the print reflect the social customs and manners of mid-19th century England. The exaggerated expressions and gestures add to the amusing nature of this satirical artwork. Miss Lind herself is portrayed as a central figure, surrounded by adoring fans who are captivated by her talent. The engraving not only provides entertainment but also offers insight into English society during that era. It highlights how opera performances were highly anticipated events that brought people together for an evening filled with laughter, joy, and awe-inspiring talent. Richard Doyle's attention to detail brings out the essence of this exciting moment in history. From funny facial expressions to exaggerated body language, every element contributes to creating a lively atmosphere within the theatre walls. Overall, this print serves as both a snapshot of early Victorian life and an amusing reminder of how public figures like Miss Lind could capture hearts and imaginations with their extraordinary talents on stage.
