Painting Description

The artist's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of the event provide viewers with a vivid and engaging snapshot of early 19th-century legal culture.
Dighton's satirical approach is evident in the exaggerated features and humorous interactions of the characters depicted in the print. His work often served as a social commentary, poking fun at the pomp and circumstance associated with such formal events. "A Peep into Westminster Hall on a Call of Sergeants" not only showcases Dighton's artistic talent but also offers insight into the societal norms and traditions of the period.
