Evening, 1738 - A Satirical Snapshot of 18th Century London Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a scene from William Hogarth's famous series "Times of the Day". Entitled "Evening, 1738" it offers a humorous glimpse into the bustling streets of London during the eighteenth century. The artist Spooner masterfully depicts an avenue outside Sadlers Wells and Sir Hugh Middleton Tavern. In this lively image, we see a well-dressed lady with her fan in hand, accompanied by a gentleman carrying a small girl. However, upon closer inspection, one notices the mischievous detail that adds an extra layer to this composition - the horns of a cow being milked in the background appear directly above the man's head. This clever symbolism suggests that he is portrayed as a cuckold. The print not only showcases typical street scenes but also highlights social satire prevalent during that era. With its mezzotint technique and monochrome palette, it exudes an air of elegance while capturing everyday life in Georgian England. Displayed at Guildhall Library Art Gallery (not for commercial use), this historical artwork provides us with valuable insights into British society at that time. It serves as both entertainment and commentary on human behavior within public spaces such as taverns and streets. Step back in time through this remarkable piece and immerse yourself in the vibrant world depicted by William Hogarth and brought to life by Spooner's skilled craftsmanship.
