A Touch on the Times, December 29,1788
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by Thomas Rowlandson in the 18th century. This hand-coloured etching showcases an allegorical figure of Britannia, symbolizing Great Britain during that era. The artwork humorously depicts several prominent political figures of the time. In this vibrant and witty composition, we see Charles James Fox, George IV (then Prince of Wales), Richard Brinsley Sheridan, and William Pitt (the Younger) engaging in a lively conversation with Britannia herself. Each character represents different political ideologies and factions prevalent during this period. The artist's skillful use of colour brings life to the scene as these influential politicians exchange ideas and opinions. With its satirical undertones, "A Touch on the Times" offers a glimpse into the complex world of British politics at that time. This remarkable piece now resides within the prestigious collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. It serves as a testament to Rowlandson's talent for capturing both historical events and societal nuances through his art. As viewers engage with this print, they are transported back to December 29th, 1788 - witnessing an animated discussion between key figures who shaped British history. Through its clever imagery and meticulous detail, "A Touch on the Times" remains an invaluable representation of political satire from one of Britain's most renowned artists.
