"A Dash up St James's Street" is a satirical print by the renowned British caricaturist James Gillray, created in 1801. The artwork is a vivid example of Gillray's sharp wit and his ability to capture and critique the social and political life of his time through visual means. The print depicts a scene of chaotic energy, with a central figure, often interpreted as a caricature of a well-known personality of the era, racing up St James's Street in London, a location known for its fashionable and elite residents.

The scene is filled with humorous details and exaggerated features, typical of Gillray's style, which both amuse and provide commentary on the excesses and follies of the upper classes. The print showcases Gillray's mastery of etching and his skillful use of line and shading to create dynamic compositions that were both entertaining and thought-provoking. "A Dash up St James's Street" is considered an important work within Gillray's oeuvre, reflecting the artist's critical eye and the vibrant political and social landscape of late 18th-century and early 19th-century Britain.

As a significant piece of social satire, the print is held in various collections and has been the subject of scholarly analysis, particularly in the context of studies on caricature, British history, and visual culture. It remains a valuable historical document, providing insight into the cultural and political milieu of the time, as well as a testament to Gillray's enduring legacy as one of Britain's greatest caricaturists.
