EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Who Comes Here?, A Grenadier" we are transported to a Victorian era tavern called "Ye Bleeding Horse". The scene depicts a British Grenadier, representing a later age, approaching the establishment where medieval characters are enjoying their ale. As he eagerly seeks refreshment with the nursery rhyme phrase, "Who comes here? A grenadier - What d ye want? A pot of beer" he is met with disdain and mockery from the merry drinkers. The artist, J. E. Rogers, skillfully captures the moment as the grenadier realizes he has forgotten his money. With disappointment etched on his face, he is sent away by these boisterous revelers who rudely thumb their noses at him while sneering in contempt. This illustration beautifully portrays the clash between different time periods and social classes within British society during that era. Published in London in 1876 by Macmillan and Co. , this image is part of Rogers' collection titled "Nursery Rhymes - Ridicula Rediviva". Through chromolith printing techniques by R. Clay Sons & Taylor, each detail of this artwork comes to life vividly. This nostalgic piece invites us to reflect on themes such as pub culture, alcohol consumption, and societal attitudes towards drunkenness. It serves as a reminder that even across centuries and through various artistic mediums like prints or illustrations, timeless narratives continue to captivate our imagination.
