EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Mr. Jorrocks enters into Handley Cross, 1854" transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century England. Created by renowned artist John Leech, this etching vividly captures a pivotal moment from Robert Smith Surtees' novel "Handley Cross; or, Mr. Jorrocks's Hunt". In the foreground of the image, we see a diverse group of people eagerly awaiting the arrival of Mr. Jorrocks on horseback. Men and women dressed in period attire line the streets alongside children who are filled with excitement at this grand spectacle. The central figure is undoubtedly Mr. Jorrocks himself - a fictional character brought to life through Surtees' literary genius. With his hat doffed in greeting and an air of confidence about him, he commands attention as he rides through Handley Cross. Horses play a prominent role in this scene as well, reflecting the equestrian theme that permeates both Surtees' book and Leech's artwork. The animals stand tall and proud beside their riders, adding an element of strength and elegance to the composition. Flags fluttering high above create a sense of celebration and anticipation among the crowd gathered below. These vibrant banners symbolize unity within Handley Cross while also hinting at some upcoming adventure or event that awaits our protagonist. John Leech's masterful portrayal skillfully combines artistry with storytelling as he brings together characters from literature within one frame.
