EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a moment in history as Jack Sheppard, the infamous thief, finds himself in Newgate Ward having his portrait taken by two renowned artists of the time, Sir James Thornhill and William Hogarth. This illustration is derived from "Jack Sheppard: A Romance" a semi-factual novel written by William Harrison Ainsworth and published in 1839. In this scene, we witness Jack Sheppard confined within the walls of his cell, shackled with chains that symbolize his criminal past. Despite his notoriety as an escapee and being chained to an easel for this portrait session, Jack's defiant spirit shines through. The painting depicts him standing tall against all odds. Thornhill and Hogarth were prominent painters during the 18th century whose works captured the essence of their subjects' personalities. Their collaboration on this piece adds depth to its historical significance. As they meticulously paint Jack's likeness, one can't help but wonder about the conversations exchanged between these creative minds and their notorious subject. This image transports us back to a time when criminals like Jack Sheppard became legends in their own right. It serves as a reminder that even those deemed infamous have stories worth telling and art worth creating. Through this photo print, we are invited to explore both the dark corners of human nature and the artistic brilliance that emerged from it during London's XVIIIth century - an era filled with intrigue, rebellion, and creativity.
