James Boswell, his wife, and Dr Johnson at tea in Edinburgh, 1773, (1786). Artist: Thomas Rowlandson
James Boswell, his wife, and Dr Johnson at tea in Edinburgh, 1773, (1786). Scots writer James Boswell and his wife Margaret at tea with English lexicographer Dr Samuel Johnson. Boswell wrote: My wife had tea ready for him, which it is well known he delighted to drink at all hours, particularly when sitting up late. He shewed much complacency upon finding that the mistress of the house was so attentive to his singular habit; and as no man could be more polite when he chose to be so, his address to her was most courteous and engaging; and his conversation soon charmed her into a forgetfulness of his external appearance. Illustration from Social Caricature in the Eighteenth Century... With over two hundred illustrations by George Paston [pseudonym of Emily Morse Symonds], (London, 1905)

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1773 in Edinburgh, Scotland. The renowned Scots writer James Boswell and his wife Margaret are seen engaging in an intimate tea gathering with none other than the esteemed English lexicographer Dr Samuel Johnson. As the image suggests, Boswell's wife had prepared a delightful cup of tea for Dr Johnson, who was known for his fondness of the beverage at all hours of the day. The artist Thomas Rowlandson skillfully captures the moment when Dr Johnson expresses his gratitude towards Margaret for her attentiveness to his peculiar habit. Despite Dr Johnson's unconventional appearance, described as less than appealing by some accounts, he exudes charm and courtesy towards Margaret. His engaging conversation soon captivates her attention and allows her to overlook any initial reservations about his external features. This illustration is part of a collection titled "Social Caricature in the Eighteenth Century" which showcases over two hundred illustrations by George Paston (pseudonym of Emily Morse Symonds). It offers us a glimpse into not only the social dynamics but also the literary and intellectual circles that thrived during this period. Through this image, we witness a unique convergence of talent and intellect as these notable figures come together over tea—an emblematic symbol of British culture—to exchange ideas and forge lasting connections.
