EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Humours of St Giles" takes us back to the 18th century streets of London, where poverty and revelry coexisted in a delicate balance. The engraving depicts a scene outside "The Intrepid Fox" a tavern located on Wardour Street, with its landlord Sam House peering out from the window. Sam House, an ardent supporter of Charles James Fox during the Westminster election of 1784, changed the tavern's sign as a tribute to his favored politician. Published in 1788, this artwork offers us a glimpse into the vibrant public life that thrived within these walls. In this bustling street corner, we witness various aspects of daily life unfolding before our eyes. Children roam about in tattered clothing while their mothers nurse infants or work as maidservants nearby. The air is filled with laughter and chatter as patrons indulge in drink and merriment at all hours. "The Humours of St Giles" serves as both an exposé and celebration of London's low-life culture. It captures the essence of this working-class neighborhood - raw yet full of character - where joy and hardship intertwine seamlessly. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported to another era; one that reminds us that even amidst poverty and struggle, there is still room for camaraderie and moments worth cherishing.
