EDITORS COMMENTS
In this comical engraving titled "They 'Do' Cologne Cathedral" artist Richard Doyle takes us on a whimsical journey through 19th-century European tourism. Depicting three young English men, presumably Messrs Brown, Jones, and Robinson from the book of the same name, we witness their hilarious attempts at exploring Germany's iconic Cologne Cathedral. With exaggerated expressions and gestures, the trio appears to be completely out of their element as they consult an oversized guidebook while standing in front of the magnificent cathedral. The scene is filled with humor and amusement as these clueless tourists try to navigate their way through German culture. Doyle's artwork captures not only the lightheartedness of travel but also highlights the universal experience of being a foreigner in unfamiliar surroundings. Through his clever portrayal, he reminds us that even in our quest for adventure, we are bound to encounter moments of confusion and hilarity. This print serves as a delightful reminder that travel is not just about ticking off landmarks but also embracing unexpected encounters and finding joy in cultural differences. It invites viewers to laugh along with Messrs Brown, Jones, and Robinson as they stumble upon new experiences during their European escapade. Overall, "They 'Do' Cologne Cathedral" offers a humorous glimpse into 19th-century tourism while reminding us to approach our own travels with an open mind and a sense of humor.
