Painting Description
James Gillray (1756-1815) was a prominent British caricaturist and printmaker, renowned for his satirical etchings that lampooned political figures and societal norms of his time. Among his extensive body of work, the series "Etchings, 1799-1803, With Hand Colouring, Including 'pen-etration', 'half Natural', 'all Bond Street Trembled As He Stroke', 'the inexpressible Air Of Dignity', All Published By H. Humphrey, On Wove, With Margins, 260 X 197mm" stands out as a significant collection that captures the essence of his artistic style and thematic preoccupations.
This series of etchings, created between 1799 and 1803, showcases Gillray's masterful use of satire and his keen eye for detail. Each piece in the collection is meticulously hand-coloured, enhancing the visual impact and adding a layer of vibrancy to the already dynamic compositions. The dimensions of the works, 260 x 197mm, suggest a format that is intimate yet substantial enough to convey the intricate details and complex narratives typical of Gillray's art.
The titles of the individual etchings, such as 'pen-etration', 'half Natural', 'all Bond Street Trembled As He Stroke', and 'the inexpressible Air Of Dignity', hint at the provocative and often humorous nature of Gillray's commentary. These works were published by Hannah Humphrey, a notable print seller and Gillray's long-time collaborator, who played a crucial role in the dissemination of his prints. Humphrey's shop was a central hub for the distribution of satirical prints in London, making Gillray's works accessible to a broad audience.
Gillray's etchings from this period often targeted the political and social elite, using exaggerated features and absurd scenarios to critique their actions and behaviours. His ability to blend artistic skill with sharp wit made his works powerful tools of social commentary. The hand-colouring of these etchings not only adds aesthetic value but also underscores the artisanal quality of each print, making them unique pieces of art.
