EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the Homecoming Procession for William Curtis, Lord Mayor of London, in 1821. The image, taken from Pierce Egan's "Real Life in Ireland," is a hand-colored engraving that showcases the grandeur and pageantry of the occasion. The procession includes Aldermen and shopkeepers carrying torches alongside Curtis's carriage, illuminating the night sky. The atmosphere is festive and triumphant, with the anticipation of a Te Deum Chaunt, a hymn of thanksgiving, in the air. William Curtis, an English naturalist and publisher, was celebrated for his contributions to the scientific community, particularly in the field of ornithology. The print's vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the exotic birds featured in the procession, including the variegated Loxia capensis, the yellow Bishop Euplectes pin-tailed Finch, and the Erythrura prasina, also known as the Grosbeak of Coromandel or Java. The print is reminiscent of the 18th century's fascination with the natural world and the exotic. It is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, as well as the importance of exploration and discovery. The engraving is attributed to François Nicolas Martinet and George Cooke, and is a fine example of the copperplate engraving technique popular during this period. This print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of wonder and curiosity about the natural world.
