EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving by George Cruikshank, titled "Monstrosities of 1825 & 6,1835" captures a whimsical and satirical portrayal of fashion and society in the early 19th century. The print showcases an array of exaggerated characters, each embodying their own unique style and eccentricity. In this comical scene, we see men and women strolling through a park on a windy day. Their costumes are outrageously extravagant, with wide-brimmed hats adorned with feathers and ribbons for the ladies, while the gentlemen sport top hats or military-style headgear. One man stands out as particularly obese, emphasizing the obsession with excess during this era. Amidst the fashionable chaos, dogs playfully join in on the promenade. Caricatured soldiers march alongside these monstrosities of fashion, adding to the overall absurdity depicted in Cruikshank's work. The artist's attention to detail is evident throughout; from windblown bonnets to windswept muffs held tightly by gloved hands. Each figure exudes personality through their exaggerated features and poses. Cruikshank's caricatures serve as both social commentary and entertainment for viewers. Through his artistry, he highlights society's obsession with appearance while poking fun at its extremes. This engraving offers us a glimpse into an era where fashion was taken to outrageous heights. It reminds us that even centuries ago people were not immune to
