Painting Description
"Knives, Scissors and Razors to Grind" is the sixth plate in the series "The Cries of London" by the English painter Francis Wheatley. The series, which vividly portrays the street vendors of 18th-century London, was engraved by Giovanni Vendramini and published by Colnaghi & Co. in 1795. This particular artwork captures a knife grinder in the act of offering his sharpening services, a common trade during the period. The image is a fine example of Wheatley's attention to the details of everyday life and his ability to convey the lively atmosphere of London streets. Vendramini's engraving enhances the original painting, adding depth and texture through meticulous line work. This series not only illustrates the diversity of street trades but also serves as a valuable historical record of urban working-class livelihoods.
