EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century print, titled "Doctor Syntax: Quae Genus committed, with a riotous dancing Party, to the Watch-House," is a fascinating glimpse into the social history of Britain during the upper classes' revelries. The image, created by the renowned English satirical artist, William H. Rowlandson, for Syntax, or The Quadruped Journal, in 1821, portrays a lively and boisterous party scene. At the center of the composition, Doctor Syntax, a popular character from the works of William Combe, is being led by constables to the watch-house, presumably for some mischief or misdemeanor committed during the festivities. The doctor, dressed in his traditional long coat and hat, seems unfazed by the situation, as if this is just another ordinary night out. Surrounding the doctor is a riotous dancing party, with men and women, dressed in fashionable attire of the era, engaging in lively social activities. The garden setting is adorned with lanterns, adding to the festive atmosphere. Onlookers, some amused and others disapproving, gather around the scene, creating a sense of intrigue and merriment. This print provides a unique insight into the social class dynamics of 19th century Britain, where the upper classes could indulge in lavish parties and mischief, while the lower classes observed and sometimes participated in the revelries. The print also showcases the artistic talent of William H. Rowlandson, who masterfully captures the essence of the era through his satirical and humorous depiction of the scene. Overall, this print is an essential addition to any collection of historical prints or social history studies.
