EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Delightful Scene of Dr. Syntax and Ladies Engaged in Billiards in the 1820s This print, titled "The Billiard Table: Or, A Toss Up Between Three Cards," depicts a lively scene of Doctor Syntax and three elegant ladies enjoying an afternoon game of billiards in the early 1820s. The image, created by an unknown artist, is a testament to the growing popularity of billiards as a pastime among the upper classes during this era. Dr. Syntax, a fictional character created by English poet and caricaturist William Combe, is seen in the center of the composition, dressed in a long coat and waistcoat, with a thoughtful expression on his face as he studies the table and contemplates his next move. The ladies, all dressed in fashionable gowns and bonnets, are engrossed in the game, their expressions a mix of concentration and amusement. The billiard table itself is a work of art, with its green baize surface, intricately carved legs, and ornate brass fittings. The cue sticks, balls, and other billiard equipment are neatly arranged on the table, adding to the sense of order and refinement. The print also offers a glimpse into the social customs of the time, with the ladies' maid standing nearby, ready to attend to their needs. The presence of a dog at the foot of the table adds a touch of whimsy to the scene. This print is a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of the English gentry in the early 19th century. It captures the essence of a leisurely afternoon spent playing billiards, a game that was both enjoyable and respectable, and a favorite pastime of the upper classes. The print's timeless charm and historical significance make it a must-have for any collection of 19th-century art or social history.
