1. Title: A Contentious Bill: A Traveller Disputes the Landlady's Charge, 1813 2.. In this intriguing 1813 print from Mary Evans Picture Library, a traveller and a landlady engage in a heated dispute over a hotel bill. The traveller, with a determined expression, passionately argues his case, pointing to various items on the bill with a wave of his hand. The landlady, equally resolute, crosses her arms and stares him down, her stern gaze unwavering. The hotel servants, gathered around the scene, watch the unfolding drama with keen interest. Their expressions range from amusement to concern, as they ponder who will ultimately come out on top in this battle of wills. The traveller's attire – a long, worn coat, a hat, and a satchel – suggests that he has been on the road for some time. His worn appearance and the fact that he is travelling alone hint at the challenges and hardships he may have faced during his journey. The landlady, on the other hand, is dressed in the finery befitting her station as a hotel proprietor. Her elegant gown, fashionable cap, and air of self-assurance underscore her authority and her determination to uphold her business's financial integrity. The servants' role in this scene is significant. They are not only witnesses to the dispute but also potential mediators, should the situation escalate. Their presence underscores the social hierarchy of the time, with the landlady holding the power to enforce her rules and the servants acting as her enforcers. The traveller, despite his protests, is ultimately at the mercy of the landlady's judgment. This print, with its vivid depiction of a common traveller's dilemma, offers a fascinating glimpse into the social dynamics of early 19th-century England. It highlights the challenges faced by travellers during their journeys, the importance of a landlord's authority, and the role of servants in maintaining order in the hospitality industry.
