Jemmy Gordon's Frolic, or Cambridge Gambols at Peter House
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This hand-coloured engraving by Thomas Rowlandson takes us back to the lively atmosphere of Cambridge University in 1824. The scene unfolds at Peter House, one of the oldest and most prestigious colleges in Cambridge. A group of young men can be seen engaging in high jinx on the doorstep, while a female maid looks on with amusement. In the center of attention is Jemmy Gordon himself, holding a baby in one arm and a basket filled with mischief in the other. With his mortar board perched jauntily on his head, he exudes an air of mischievousness that perfectly captures the spirit of youthful camaraderie within these hallowed walls. The cartoon-like quality adds charm to this delightful snapshot from university life two centuries ago. It serves as a reminder that even scholars need moments of levity amidst their studies and intellectual pursuits. Rowlandson's skillful artistry brings each character to life, capturing their expressions and gestures with great detail. This print not only provides historical insight into student life but also showcases Rowlandson's talent as an artist. As we gaze upon this enchanting image from "The English Spy" we are transported back to a time when academia mingled effortlessly with mirth and revelry – reminding us that education should always be accompanied by joyous frolics like those witnessed at Peter House all those years ago.
