EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing and humorous print, we see King George IV playfully imitating the famous actor John Kemble in front of a distinguished audience. Princess Augusta, his mistress the Marchioness of Conyngham, and the talented mimick Charles Mathews all look on with amusement as the King entertains them at Carlton House.
The scene captures a moment of levity and camaraderie among these high society figures, showcasing their shared love for entertainment and performance. The handcoloured copperplate engraving by Robert Cruikshank brings to life the lively atmosphere of the evening, with intricate details that draw the viewer into this intimate gathering.
Bernard Blackmantle's satirical writing adds an extra layer of wit to the image, highlighting the playful nature of the King's impersonation and creating a sense of light-hearted fun. The illustration perfectly encapsulates a moment in time when even royalty could let loose and enjoy themselves in good company.
Overall, this print is not only a fascinating historical document but also a delightful glimpse into the private lives of some of Britain's most prominent figures. It serves as a reminder that even those in positions of power are not immune to moments of joy and laughter.
