EDITORS COMMENTS
The 18th century print titled "Frontispiece (Picturesque Beauties of Boswell, Part the First), May 15,1786" captures a humorous scene filled with wit and satire. Created by Thomas Rowlandson, this black and white etching showcases a lively group of characters in an intriguing setting. In the foreground, we see James Boswell, the renowned Scottish author and biographer, seated in an invalid carriage. Beside him stands Dr. Samuel Johnson, his close friend and subject of his famous biography. The two men are accompanied by General Pasqual de Paoli, a prominent figure from Corsica. The scene takes place on a country road in Britain as they embark on their journey together. The artist cleverly incorporates elements of British culture such as a rickshaw-like carriage pulled by Samuel Collings I. This whimsical touch adds to the overall charm of the image. Rowlandson's keen eye for detail is evident throughout the print; every character is depicted with distinct personalities and expressions that evoke laughter from viewers. With its satirical undertones and playful depiction of these historical figures, this artwork offers us a glimpse into both the social dynamics and sense of humor prevalent during that era. This piece can be found at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and serves as a testament to Rowlandson's talent for capturing moments infused with comedy while shedding light on significant individuals from history.
