EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bum Shop July 11,1785" takes us back to the vibrant streets of London in the 18th century. Hand-colored and meticulously etched, this artwork showcases the unique fashion trends that defined the era. Attributed to R. Rushworth, a British artist active during 1785-86, this print captures the essence of London's high society. The image depicts a bustling shop filled with fashionable women eager to explore and purchase bustles - accessories designed to enhance their figures. The exaggerated female silhouette of the time is prominently featured, with high hairdos and inflated busts complemented by enlarged rumps. These props were essential for achieving the desired look and were highly sought after by stylish ladies. Intriguingly, we witness women trying on various models of bustles as they strive for perfection in their appearance. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an era where fashion was not only about personal style but also about conforming to societal standards. The attention to detail in this hand-colored etching is remarkable; it beautifully captures both the intricate designs of these fashionable items and the excitement surrounding them within a lively shopping environment. As we admire this historical piece from The Liszt Collection, let us appreciate how fashion has evolved over centuries while acknowledging its power in shaping cultural norms and individual identities throughout history.
