EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Commodore Hawser Trunnion in Peregrine Pickle, 1758.1785" transports us back to the vibrant world of Tobias Smollett's picaresque novel, The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle. Created by the talented artist Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki in 1785, this print captures a pivotal moment in the story. In the scene depicted, we witness Commodore Hawser Trunnion, an aged seaman with only one eye, leaping from his seat at a tavern table while unleashing a torrent of curses. His disabled body and battle-worn appearance hint at a lifetime spent on the high seas. Chodowiecki's intricate copperplate engraving skillfully brings out every detail of Trunnion's character and emotions. The composition exudes energy and movement as Trunnion dominates the frame with his animated presence. This powerful portrayal showcases both Chodowiecki's artistic prowess and his deep understanding of Smollett's literary work. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from an early 18th-century German private collection, we are reminded not only of its historical significance but also its enduring relevance today. It serves as a testament to the timeless power of literature to transport us into vivid worlds filled with colorful characters like Commodore Hawser Trunnion. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, this engraving invites us to delve deeper into Smollett's adventurous tale while marveling at Chodowiecki's ability to bring words to life through art.
