EDITORS COMMENTS
The Loyal Toast, 1798: A Celebration of Charles James Fox's Birthday". This print captures a momentous occasion in British history. Painted by the talented artist James Gillray, it depicts a lively dinner at the Crown and Anchor tavern, where distinguished individuals gather to celebrate the birthday of the renowned statesman Charles James Fox. In this scene, we witness an atmosphere filled with merriment and camaraderie. The Duke of Norfolk stands tall, raising his brimming glass in a toast to honor Fox's special day. Positioned beside him is none other than Charles James Fox himself, exuding charisma and influence. In the foreground sits the Duke of Bedford, adding to the grandeur of this gathering. The setting itself is rich with historical significance. The Crown and Anchor tavern serves as a symbolic backdrop for this celebration - a place where political discussions often took place during that era. Its walls echo with whispers of past debates and decisions that shaped Britain's destiny. Gillray masterfully captures each detail in his etching; from the elegant furniture to every expression on these influential men's faces. This monochrome portrayal adds depth and intensity to their characters while highlighting their dedication towards political ideals. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art from our collection at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, let us be transported back to 18th-century England – an era defined by passion for politics, loyalty among friends, and celebrations that united both royalty and commoners alike.
