Painting Description
"Fresh Gathered Peas Young Hastings" is the seventh plate in the series "The Cries of London," which is a collection of artworks created by the British painter Francis Wheatley (1747–1801). The series, which gained popularity in the late 18th century, depicts various street vendors in London, capturing the vibrancy and diversity of the city's street life during that period. This particular plate was engraved by the Italian engraver Giovanni Vendramini (1769–1839) and published by Colnaghi & Co. in 1795.
The artwork portrays a young vendor, known as Young Hastings, calling out the sale of fresh gathered peas, a common cry in the streets of London at the time. Wheatley's attention to detail not only reflects the character and attire of the street vendor but also provides a window into the social fabric and daily life of the period. The series, including "Fresh Gathered Peas Young Hastings," was well-received for its picturesque quality and the skillful depiction of the subjects, contributing to Wheatley's reputation as a painter of social scenes.
The "Cries of London" series was exhibited at the Royal Academy, and the original paintings were subsequently engraved and sold as prints, which contributed to their widespread recognition and popularity. The engravings by Vendramini, known for his fine craftsmanship, preserved the charm and detail of Wheatley's original paintings, allowing the series to reach a broader audience and ensuring its historical significance as a record of London's street culture at the close of the 18th century.
