EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "St Crispins Day (engraving)" by George Cruikshank takes us back to a humorous and historic moment in time. The image, part of The Comic Almanack series, transports us to the early nineteenth century with its amusing and entertaining depiction of St Crispin's Day. In this comical engraving, we witness a scene from the Battle of Agincourt as depicted by Cruikshank. Amidst the chaos and violence of war, the focus shifts to London's shoe makers and cobblers who find solace in their domestic affairs. With a touch of humor, they are seen indulging in drink while merrily going about their business. The artist brilliantly captures the essence of this historical event while infusing it with his signature wit. As we gaze at this artwork, we cannot help but chuckle at the juxtaposition between such an important battle and these lighthearted characters. Through this print, Cruikshank reminds us that even during times of great conflict, there is room for levity and amusement. It serves as a reminder that history is not only made up of grand events but also everyday moments that shape our collective narrative. With its rich historical context and clever storytelling, "St Crispins Day (engraving)" offers viewers both entertainment and insight into a significant period - the Hundred Years War. This piece stands as a testament to Cruikshank's talent for blending humor with history
