Very Slippy-Weather, 1808 - A Humorous Glimpse into London's West End
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This hand-coloured engraving from 1808, titled "Very Slippy-Weather" offers a delightful window into the bustling streets of London's West End during the early 19th century. Created by renowned caricaturist James Gillray and published by Hannah Humphrey, this satirical illustration captures the comical chaos that ensues when winter weather turns treacherous. In this lively scene, men of various backgrounds and professions navigate their way through slippery cobblestone streets. Clutching canes for support and adorned in fashionable wigs and monocles, these characters find themselves at the mercy of Mother Nature's icy grip. A fallen soldier struggles to regain his footing while nearby shoppers desperately attempt to keep their balance amidst scattered coins on the ground. Gillray's keen eye for detail is evident in every aspect of this print shop display. From a prominently featured barometer and thermometer indicating freezing temperatures to an amusingly exaggerated dog slipping alongside its owner, each element adds depth and humor to the scene. The hand-colouring technique employed further enhances the vibrancy of this historical gem from Heritage Images' Historica Graphica Collection. As we gaze upon this charming snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people found solace in laughter amid challenging circumstances.
