A Sudden Squall in Hyde Park, London, 1791
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Thomas Rowlandson captures a chaotic scene amidst the unpredictable British weather of the 18th century. In this vibrant aquatint print, we witness a stampede for the park gates as a coach carrying none other than the Prince of Wales and a phaeton make their way through. The pedestrians are clearly caught off guard by the sudden squall, with hats flying off and umbrellas turned inside out. Amidst this frenzy, an old naval officer takes a moment to inspect a young woman whose wind-blown petticoats reveal her legs. It is raining heavily, adding to the sense of distress among those caught in this unexpected downpour. Rowlandson's satirical depiction not only showcases his keen eye for detail but also offers commentary on English society at that time. The exaggerated costumes and fashion choices highlight the importance placed on appearance even in tumultuous weather conditions. This artwork can be found at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, offering us a glimpse into life during King George IV's reign. As we admire Rowlandson's skillful portrayal of both men and women navigating through Hyde Park under challenging circumstances, we are reminded of how weather has always played an influential role in shaping daily life throughout history.
