"Jewish Merchant" is one of the illustrations from the collection "Etchings of Remarkable Beggars, Itinerant Traders and Other Persons of Notoriety in London and its Environs" created by the English artist John Thomas Smith in 1815. Smith, who was also known as 'Antiquity Smith', served as the keeper of prints at the British Museum and was an active figure in the London art scene during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His work provides a vivid portrayal of the urban underclass and the working poor of London during a period of significant social and economic change.

The "Jewish Merchant" etching is part of a series that captures the lives of individuals who were often marginalized and overlooked in society. Smith's attention to detail and his ability to convey the character and circumstances of his subjects make his etchings valuable historical documents, as well as works of art. The series as a whole is notable for its unvarnished representation of poverty and street life, offering insights into the daily existence of those who lived on the fringes of society during the Regency period.

John Thomas Smith's etchings, including "Jewish Merchant," are characterized by their realism and lack of romanticization, setting them apart from other contemporary depictions of the poor. The collection was also accompanied by textual descriptions, providing context and background for the individuals portrayed. "Etchings of Remarkable Beggars, Itinerant Traders and Other Persons of Notoriety" is considered an important contribution to the genre of social realism in art and remains a valuable resource for historians and art enthusiasts interested in the social history of early 19th-century London.
