EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by John Collier, we are transported back to the bustling streets of 18th century England. The scene depicts a man with a rake and a woman selling spoons and stirrers, each character embodying distinct expressions and passions. Collier's satirical cartoon is an illustration for his book "Humans Passions Delineated" published in 1773. Through his artistry, he skillfully captures the differences in facial expressions between the two characters, highlighting their individual personalities and desires. The man with the rake exudes a sense of strength and determination as he wields his tool. His expression suggests hard work and perhaps even a touch of mischief hidden beneath his rugged exterior. On the other hand, the woman selling spoons and stirrers presents herself with grace and charm. Her face displays warmth and friendliness, inviting passersby to engage with her wares. This caricature not only showcases Collier's artistic talent but also serves as social commentary on human nature during that era. It reminds us that even amidst daily routines or mundane tasks like raking or selling utensils, individuals possess unique passions that shape their lives. As we gaze upon this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within every stroke of Collier's pen.
