EDITORS COMMENTS
Visiting the Sick, pub. 18th July, 1806 (hand coloured engraving) captures a poignant moment in history as depicted by James Gillray. The print showcases an intimate scene where Charles James Fox, Mrs Maria Fitzherbert, and the Prince of Wales, George IV, gather around a deathbed. In this satirical cartoon with political undertones, we witness the power dynamics and personal relationships of influential figures during that era. As Fox's wife lies on her deathbed, overcome by illness or emotion, the Prince Regent reaches for smelling salts to revive her. A bishop stands nearby with a rosary in hand while observing the scene. The image alludes to various themes such as Catholic emancipation and political satire prevalent at that time. Gillray masterfully uses caricature to convey complex emotions and social commentary through his detailed engravings. This particular print is part of The Stapleton Collection and offers us a glimpse into English society during the late 18th century. It serves as a historical document showcasing not only artistic skill but also shedding light on significant events and personalities from that period. As an engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it allows us to appreciate both its aesthetic qualities and its value as a visual representation of past times.
