EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Isaac Fawkes, also known as the "Slight of Hand Man," an accomplished magician and acrobat from the early 18th century. The undated hand-coloured engraving offers a glimpse into the world of entertainment during this era, with Fawkes depicted in the center, his wig askew and a mischievous grin on his face. He is shown performing one of his famous card tricks, his nimble fingers deftly manipulating the cards in mid-air. Surrounding Fawkes are acrobats from a Bartholomew Fair print, adding to the lively and vibrant atmosphere of the scene. The historical significance of this image lies in its representation of the popular side shows and performances that were a staple of fairs and public events during this time. The use of hand-coloring adds an extra layer of detail and visual interest, bringing the image to life and transporting us back to the bustling streets of 18th-century London. Isaac Fawkes was a master of his craft, known for his skill in sleight of hand and acrobatics. His performances were a source of wonder and amusement for audiences, and his reputation as a tickster and trickster only added to his allure. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history of magic and entertainment, and the enduring appeal of the art of deception and acrobatics.
