Caption: "Money Lenders, November 8,1784" - A Satirical Depiction of Finance and Prejudice in 18th Century Britain This print showcases a hand-colored etching titled "Money Lenders, November 8,1784" created by the renowned artist Thomas Rowlandson. Dating back to the late 18th century during the reign of King George IV of Great Britain, this artwork provides a fascinating glimpse into societal attitudes and prejudices prevalent at that time. Rowlandson's satirical depiction portrays money lenders engaged in financial transactions with individuals from various backgrounds. However, it is important to note that this piece has been criticized for its anti-Semitic undertones. The artist's portrayal perpetuates harmful stereotypes about Jewish people and their involvement in finance. The scene captures the bustling atmosphere of borrowing and lending money within British society during this era.

Despite its controversial nature due to its anti-Semitic themes, this artwork serves as a valuable historical artifact reflecting prevailing sentiments towards Jews in Georgian England. It prompts us to reflect on how art can both mirror and challenge societal norms. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this hand-tinted print offers an opportunity for viewers today to engage critically with issues such as prejudice, religion, finance, and power dynamics that were prevalent during the reigns of
