EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing engraving titled "Marriott the Glutton" we are transported back to the 19th century, where an English School artist masterfully captures a moment of indulgence and excess. The print showcases Marriott, known for his insatiable appetite and love for all things culinary. With a mischievous glint in his eye, Marriott taunts us from within the frame as he revels in his own gluttony. His portly figure is adorned with extravagant clothing that reflects the fashion of the era, emphasizing both his wealth and disregard for societal norms. The artist skillfully portrays not only Marriott's physical appearance but also manages to convey a sense of personality through intricate details. From the way he holds a fork laden with food to the slight smirk on his face, every element serves as a reminder of his unapologetic enjoyment of life's pleasures. This portrait challenges our perceptions about self-control and societal expectations surrounding consumption. It invites us to reflect upon our own relationship with indulgence while simultaneously serving as a cautionary tale against excessive behavior. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we cannot help but be drawn into Marriott's world - one filled with temptation and desire. Through its timeless appeal, this artwork continues to captivate audiences today by reminding us that even centuries later, human nature remains unchanged when it comes to our appetites.
