EDITORS COMMENTS
A Macaroni Man's Amusement: A Shallow and Irritating Dandy in a Toilet Scene, 1773 This intriguing print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, depicts a young, shallow, and irritating man, known as a 'Macaroni,' engaging in a rather amusing and pompous activity. The Macaroni fashion, popular in the late 18th century, was characterized by its extravagant and ostentatious style. This man, with his smirk and large wig, embodies the essence of this fashion trend. The scene unfolds in a toilet, a private chamber where one would prepare for the day or attend to personal grooming. The Macaroni man, wearing a false wig that appears far too large for his head, suppresses a giggle as he stares at his reflection in the mirror. His smirk suggests a sense of self-satisfaction and amusement at his own appearance. The Macaroni fashion was often criticized for being shallow and frivolous, and this print captures the irritating nature of those who embraced it. The man's pompous demeanor and the extravagance of his wig serve to highlight the absurdity of the trend. This print, circa 1773, offers a glimpse into the history of fashion and the societal norms of the time. It serves as a reminder of the importance of self-expression, even if it may be considered shallow or irritating by others. The Macaroni man's smirk and large wig continue to intrigue and entertain us, over two centuries later.
