EDITORS COMMENTS
The Invasion (Plate 2) captures a moment of historical contrast and patriotic pride as English soldiers relax outside a pub, poking fun at the laughable French army with a caricature of King Louis XV. In this satirical artwork by Hogarth from 1756, we see the English troops enjoying themselves while their enemies are portrayed in a comical light. The scene is filled with humor and camaraderie, showcasing the resilience and spirit of the English soldiers during times of conflict.
The juxtaposition between the relaxed English soldiers and the ridiculed French army highlights the strength and unity of England during wartime. The caricature of King Louis XV adds an element of satire to the print, emphasizing the patriotic sentiment behind it. This piece serves as both a historical document and a form of artistic expression, capturing a specific moment in time with wit and creativity.
As we gaze upon this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back to an era where national identity was fiercely defended through art and satire. The Invasion (Plate 2) reminds us of the power of visual storytelling in shaping our understanding of history and culture.
