EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Taste: The Gate of Burlington House, 1731" takes us back to the vibrant streets of 18th century Britain. Painted by the renowned artist William Hogarth, this masterpiece captures a moment in time with incredible detail and precision. In the foreground, we see a male builder perched on a ladder, diligently whitewashing the grand entrance gate of Burlington House. With paintbrush in hand and scaffolding surrounding him, he epitomizes the hardworking individuals who shaped the architectural landscape of their era. The bustling Piccadilly road serves as a backdrop for this scene, with carriages and coaches passing by. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into not only the physical structures but also the social class dynamics that defined this period. Hogarth's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the spilling bucket of whitewash to each intricately designed building lining Piccadilly Road. The composition is further enriched by George Paston's illustrations which bring depth and life to Hogarth's vision. As we delve deeper into this image, it becomes clear that it represents more than just an ordinary street scene. It symbolizes craftsmanship, dedication, and reflects upon society's obsession with taste during that time. This remarkable collaboration between Hogarth, Paston, Charles Boyle (Earl of Burlington), Alexander Pope and Emily Morse Symonds transports us back centuries ago while reminding us of our shared heritage and appreciation for artistry.
