EDITORS COMMENTS
The hand-coloured engraving titled "Monstrosities of 1825 & 6, pub. 1835" captures a whimsical and exaggerated portrayal of fashion trends during the early 19th century. This comical artwork showcases various characters strolling through a park, each one adorned in outlandish attire that reflects their social status and personal style. In this lively scene, we see men and women from different classes flaunting their extravagant outfits with pride. The upper-class gentlemen don wide-brimmed hats and carry walking sticks, exuding an air of sophistication. Meanwhile, the fashionable ladies sport bonnets and muff accessories while strutting alongside them. One cannot help but notice the central figure - a delightfully plump lady who steals the limelight with her larger-than-life presence. Her voluminous dress accentuates her curves as she confidently takes part in this fashionable promenade. The artist's playful caricature style adds to the overall charm of this print. Exaggerated features and humorous expressions bring these mini-monstrosities to life, making it impossible not to smile at their absurdity. This enchanting engraving offers a glimpse into an era where fashion was taken to extreme heights for both amusement and self-expression. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, people have used clothing as a means of showcasing their individuality while embracing societal norms or pushing boundaries in pursuit of personal style.
