The Reconciliation (Picturesque Beauties of Boswell, Part the Second), June 20,1786 - A Humorous Depiction of a Literary Dispute
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this black and white etching by Thomas Rowlandson from the 18th century, we witness a comical scene unfolding between two prominent figures in British literature. The print captures the moment of reconciliation between James Boswell and Dr. Samuel Johnson after an intense argument. The image showcases the wit and satire for which Rowlandson was renowned. We see Boswell kneeling before Johnson, symbolizing his submission to the esteemed writer's authority. Both men are dressed in traditional Scottish attire, representing their shared heritage as Scots. Rowlandson's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the characters' facial expressions and body language. While Boswell appears contrite and apologetic, Johnson maintains a stern yet amused countenance—a testament to his intellectual prowess. This artwork reflects not only a specific historical event but also broader themes such as friendship, ego clashes among intellectuals, and the power dynamics within literary circles during that era. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a visual reminder of the vibrant literary culture in 18th-century Britain. It invites viewers to delve into the world of these iconic writers while providing an amusing glimpse into their personal lives beyond their written works.
