EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a vibrant scene from France in 1756, as depicted by the talented artist William Hogarth. The Duke of Cumberland inn in England serves as the backdrop for this lively moment. To the left, a group of soldiers gathers around a grenadier who skillfully paints a caricature of the King of France, much to their amusement. Meanwhile, seated on the ground in front of them is a fifer playing "Godsave great George our king" adding an element of patriotic music to the atmosphere. On the right side of the image, we see a recruiting sergeant measuring a young man who eagerly wishes to enlist. This portrayal highlights both the military recruitment efforts and societal expectations during this period. The engraving showcases intricate details such as period dress and weaponry, emphasizing its historical accuracy. Hogarth's satire shines through in this artwork, subtly commenting on politics and power dynamics prevalent at that time. The composition skillfully combines elements of mirth and war within one frame. This particular print represents the third and final state of plate out of two plates created by Hogarth himself. Preserved at Guildhall Library Art Gallery, it stands as an exemplary piece from his collection.
