The Flying Breakfast, August 1,1782
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the vibrant streets of 18th century Britain. Created by G L S, this etching showcases the remarkable talent of Thomas Rowlandson in capturing both humor and satire. The scene unfolds in a bustling coaching inn's dining room where weary passengers await their morning meal. The early hour is evident as men and women yawn and rub their tired eyes while anxiously glancing at the grandfather clock on the wall. A drowsy coachman can be seen dozing off nearby, his job momentarily forgotten. Amidst this sleepy atmosphere, one cannot help but notice a comical twist - a man suspended mid-air above the table! This unexpected sight adds an element of surprise to an otherwise mundane breakfast scene. It seems that time itself has come to life as if mocking those who are still struggling to wake up. Rowlandson's attention to detail brings every character to life with distinct personalities. From the bored expressions on some faces to others engaged in conversation or lost in thought, each individual contributes to the overall narrative of this moment frozen in time. "The Flying Breakfast" serves as a reminder that even during ordinary moments, there is always room for whimsy and laughter. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, we are transported back centuries ago when daily routines were infused with wit and charm.
