EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, published in 1726, depicts the renowned literary character Lemuel Gulliver (from Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels") being surrounded by the diminutive Lilliputians. The Lilliputians, known for their tiny stature, are shown clambering all over Gulliver as if he were a mountain. Gulliver, an Englishman of average size, describes their presence as an 'army of rats walking on their hind legs.' The experience of being overrun by these tiny beings leaves Gulliver feeling both amazed and intimidated. Swift's satirical novel, filled with fantastical adventures, was first published in 1726 and has since become a classic in the English literary canon. This print, with its vivid depiction of the Lilliputians' invasion of Gulliver's world, offers a visual representation of the whimsical and imaginative story. The swift and intricate movements of the Lilliputians as they scamper across Gulliver's body are a testament to the detail and skill of the printmaker. The historical significance of this image lies in its role as a visual adaptation of a seminal work in English literature. The image, with its playful comparison of Gulliver to a rat, adds a light-hearted touch to the tale's exploration of themes such as travel, size, and power dynamics. This print, with its rich history and intriguing narrative, is a must-have for any collector of historical literature or art. The image, published by Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Swift's "Gulliver's Travels" and the power of visual storytelling.
