EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that offers a glimpse into the bustling world of art auctions in 18th century England. Created by the talented artist James Gillray, this satirical caricature captures the essence of Christie's auction house with its lively and humorous depiction of both men and women engrossed in the art trade. In this vibrant scene, we see people from all walks of life gathered together to view and bid on valuable artworks. The fashion choices of the attendees reflect the trends of the time, with men sporting hats and women donning elaborate headdresses. The colorful attire adds an extra layer of charm to this Georgian-era setting. Gillray's keen eye for detail is evident in his portrayal of various characters present at Christie's auction house. From a well-dressed lady examining pictures to a slightly overweight gentleman engrossed in conversation, each figure brings their own unique personality to the scene. This engraving-turned-watercolor masterpiece now resides within the esteemed collection of Moscow's State A Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. Its presence there ensures that future generations can appreciate Gillray's exceptional talent for capturing not only physical appearances but also social dynamics through his artwork. As we gaze upon "A Peep at Christies" we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in an era where art was not only admired but also traded amidst laughter and camaraderie.
