EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print captures the moment when young Joseph Grimaldi, the future English comic legend, sets off to visit his godfather in Georgian London during the 1780s. Dressed in a bright red jacket and breeches, and clutching a hat in his hand, the young boy exudes an infectious energy and excitement. His laughter-filled expression and the jovial crowd around him suggest that this visit will be a memorable one. Joseph Grimaldi (1778-1837) would go on to become one of the most famous and influential figures in the history of English comedy and entertainment. Known as "Joey" or "Master Joey," he was a master of physical comedy, acrobatics, and clowning, and his influence can be seen in the works of later comedians such as Charles Dickens and the illustrator George Cruikshank. The print, drawn in the late 18th or early 19th century, may have been inspired by Grimaldi's own memoirs or the popular accounts of his early years written by Charles Dickens under the pseudonym "Boz." The lively and humorous scene is a testament to the enduring appeal of Grimaldi's story and the rich cultural heritage of Georgian London.
