EDITORS COMMENTS
Clerkenwell Cavalry" is an exquisite aquatint print by Thomas Rowlandson, published in 1799 as part of a volume of 86 aquatints entitled "Loyal Volunteers of London and Environs." This image offers a glimpse into the spirit of home defense during the Wars of the French Revolution, specifically between the years 1793 and 1802. The print depicts a lively scene of the Clerkenwell Cavalry, a local militia unit, assembling in their armory. Rowlandson's masterful use of aquatint technique brings to life the intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, the gleaming swords, and the array of military equipment. The soldiers are shown in various poses, some mounting their horses, others adjusting their gear, and a few engaging in animated conversation. The Clerkenwell Cavalry was one of many volunteer units that formed in response to the threat of French invasion during this tumultuous period. These citizen-soldiers, inspired by the call to defend their homes and communities, played an essential role in maintaining order and security in London and its surroundings. This print, with its lively composition and intricate details, serves as a testament to the courage and determination of the volunteers who answered the call to arms during the Wars of the French Revolution. It is a poignant reminder of the spirit of community and resilience that emerged in the face of adversity, and a fascinating glimpse into the military history of the era. Thomas Rowlandson's "Clerkenwell Cavalry" is an essential addition to any collection of historical prints or military memorabilia, and a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of British military history.
