Scene in Privy Gardens, Whitehall, on Sunday last, 27 April 1844. Creator: Unknown
Scene in Privy Gardens, Whitehall, on Sunday last, 27 April 1844....considerable alarm was occasioned in various parts of Westminster by the appearance of a cow, which had escaped from its owners...and which, being followed by a crowd of boys, was driven to madness, indiscriminately attacking all those who attempted to oppose its course. For nearly two hours did the wretched animal attempt to outrun its pursuers...the poor cow, then nearly exhausted, ran down Parliament-street, towards the Treasury, at which time there could not have been less than 2000 persons following it, shouting and hallooing in a disgraceful manner. Avoiding Whitehall, the poor beast turned into Privy-gardens, and finding the garden-gate of the Premier (Sir Robert Peel) standing open, immediately took refuge therein, to the no small alarm of the attendants in the hall. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a peculiar scene that unfolded in Privy Gardens, Whitehall on Sunday, 27 April 1844. The creator of this intriguing image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the already extraordinary event depicted. On that fateful day, chaos ensued as a cow broke free from its owners and embarked on a wild rampage through the streets of Westminster. Pursued by an ever-growing crowd of boys, the distressed animal unleashed its fury upon anyone who dared to impede its path. For nearly two hours, it desperately attempted to outrun its pursuers. In a surprising turn of events, the exhausted creature sought refuge within the garden-gate of none other than Sir Robert Peel's residence - causing quite a commotion among his alarmed attendants. This unexpected twist adds an element of humor to an otherwise chaotic situation. The detailed engraving transports us back in time to witness this bizarre incident firsthand. It offers a glimpse into nineteenth-century London life with bustling streets filled with people shouting and hallooing after an unruly cow. As we contemplate this fascinating snapshot from history, we are reminded not only of the unpredictability and absurdity that can unfold within our urban landscapes but also how even amidst pandemonium, there is room for moments that elicit both amusement and astonishment.
