The Remarkable Characters who were at Tunbridge Wells with Samuel Richardson, the Novelist, in 1748
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving takes us back to the vibrant social scene of Tunbridge Wells in 1748, where renowned novelist Samuel Richardson found himself surrounded by an array of fascinating personalities. From a drawing that was once in his possession, this artwork brings to life the remarkable characters who graced the town during that time. In this bustling street scene, we catch glimpses of singers and writers mingling with politicians and artists. The Earl of Chatham and the Duchess of Norfolk can be seen engaged in conversation while Miss Chudleigh captivates her audience as she speaks passionately. Meanwhile, Mr. Garrick's animated gestures draw attention from passersby. Amongst these notable figures are also ordinary individuals going about their daily lives - women dressed elegantly, a German gamester absorbed in his play, and even a bishop strolling through the crowd. The artist masterfully captures both the grandeur and diversity of this gathering. Each figure is meticulously detailed, showcasing their unique personalities and roles within society. This engraving not only serves as a visual record but also offers us a glimpse into the world that inspired Samuel Richardson's literary works. It invites us to imagine ourselves amidst these extraordinary characters whose lives intersected at Tunbridge Wells over two centuries ago.
