EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of 18th century London, where we witness an intriguing scene unfolding inside the historic Guildhall. The image captures a momentous event - the drawing of a lottery in 1739. The grand interior of the Guildhall provides a majestic backdrop for this gathering. Men and women from all walks of life have gathered around, eagerly anticipating their fate as they clutch their tickets with anticipation. Amongst them are children, wide-eyed with curiosity, adding an innocent charm to this otherwise adult affair. A diverse range of characters can be observed within this snapshot of history. From well-dressed gentlemen to elegantly attired ladies, each person exudes excitement and hope as they await their chance at fortune. The presence of both genders showcases the inclusive nature of gambling during that era. Intriguingly, amidst this sea of faces is one woman who stands out from the crowd – perhaps she possesses insider knowledge or simply has luck on her side? Her confident demeanor suggests she may be more than just another gambler; she could be a seasoned player or even someone involved in organizing these lotteries. As we delve into this fascinating visual narrative captured by Walter Hutchinson's lens, we are transported back through time to experience firsthand an important aspect of British culture - gambling and its allure during the eighteenth century.
