EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled 'The Many Escapes of Jack Sheppard,' is a captivating depiction of the notorious 18th-century English criminal, Jack Sheppard. The image, created in the 19th century, captures the thrill and intrigue surrounding Sheppard's daring jailbreaks, which earned him a place in criminal folklore. Jack Sheppard was born in London in 1702 and was known for his cunning ability to escape from prison multiple times. He began his criminal career as a burglar and was first imprisoned in 1724. However, he managed to escape from Newgate Prison just 16 days after being sentenced to hang. This was the first of several daring escapes, each more impressive than the last. The engraving shows Sheppard in the act of scaling the walls of Newgate Prison, with a determined expression on his face and a rope coiled around his waist. Below him, a crowd of onlookers watches in awe, some cheering him on, while others express their disapproval. The image captures the contradictory emotions that Sheppard's exploits elicited in the public. Despite his criminal activities, Jack Sheppard became a folk hero, and his legend lived on long after his execution in 1724. This engraving is a testament to his enduring popularity and the fascination that criminal exploits held for the people of the time. The intricate details of the image, from the textured prison walls to the individual expressions on the faces of the onlookers, add to its historical significance and make it a valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century prints.
