The Chairmens Terror, July 18,1792
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print by Thomas Rowlandson that takes us back to the bustling streets of 18th century Britain. This hand-colored etching showcases the unique profession of chair carriers, who were responsible for transporting individuals in sedan chairs. The scene unfolds outside St James Palace, where an overweight chairman struggles under the weight of his prestigious passenger. The artist's attention to detail brings this street scene to life; we can almost hear the creaking wheels and feel the strain on the carrier's face as he navigates through a crowd of curious onlookers. Rowlandson's use of color adds vibrancy and depth to this snapshot from history. The vivid hues highlight both the opulence of St James Palace and the contrasting chaos of everyday life in London. It serves as a reminder that even in grand settings like palaces, ordinary people go about their daily tasks. This print not only captures a specific moment in time but also offers insight into transportation methods and social dynamics during this era. Through Rowlandson's skillful portrayal, we are transported back to witness an amusing yet poignant slice of life from 18th century Britain. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "The Chairmens Terror" stands as a testament to Thomas Rowlandson's artistic prowess and his ability to capture both historical events and human experiences with equal finesse.
