EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pillars of the Constitution: Three o' Clock & a Cloudy Morning" takes us back to the year 1809, capturing a moment in history through the lens of James Gillray's hand-coloured etching. The image showcases Charles Howard, the 11th Duke of Norfolk, standing outside Brooks Club for gentlemen in St. James Street. In this satirical portrayal, we witness an astonishing sight - a disheveled and dissolute statesman swaying under the influence of alcohol. The corpulent figure is depicted in an alcoholic stupor, lurching forward as if struggling to maintain his balance. This caricature highlights his rotund appearance and portrays him as a drunken fool. Gillray's masterful use of satire brings forth political commentary on this Georgian era Whig politician. With Richard Sheridan by his side, both men are captured at dawn indulging in their love for drink and revelry. The artist skillfully captures every detail with precise engraving techniques that bring life to this portrait. From their dazed expressions to their staggering movements, it is evident that these pillars of society have succumbed to excessive drinking. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into the social norms and vices prevalent during that time period. It serves as a reminder that even those entrusted with upholding constitutional values can be flawed individuals who fall prey to temptation. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into history while appreciating Gillray
