EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant hand-colored engraving, titled "London Dandies or Monstrosities of 1815,1835" captures the essence of fashion and social trends in early 19th-century London. Created by the talented artist George Cruikshank in 1835, this caricature offers a humorous yet insightful commentary on the extravagant styles and personalities prevalent during that era. Set against the backdrop of Hyde Park, we see an array of flamboyantly dressed men and women parading their ostentatious outfits with pride. The dandies depicted here are adorned with feathers, muffs, and tailcoats – symbols of wealth and status. Their exaggerated appearance reflects both their desire to stand out from the crowd and their obsession with being at the forefront of fashion.

As part of the Historica Graphica Collection, this print serves as a valuable historical artifact that provides insight into London society during this period. It reminds us that throughout history, people have always sought ways to express themselves through clothing choices – sometimes resulting in
