EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "A Ship's Carpenter's Mate near a Saw Pit in a Brazil Jungle" takes us back to the year 1832. The scene depicts Royal Navy ship carpenter's mate Barney Bryan, who finds himself taking an unexpected nap next to a saw pit deep within the Brazilian jungle. As he sits on the edge of the pit, blissfully unaware, a mischievous goat prepares to butt him. Amidst this comical moment, two fellow Royal Navy sailors stand nearby, unable to contain their laughter at poor Barney's predicament. Strewn across the ground are various tools and materials of their trade: planks of lumber, baskets filled with supplies, and even a bottle of grog. Created by renowned artist George Cruikshank as part of his series "Greenwich Hospital: A Series of Naval Sketches" this handcoloured lithograph showcases not only his artistic talent but also his keen sense of humor. Through satirical drawings like this one, Cruikshank offers viewers an amusing glimpse into life aboard naval ships during that era. With its detailed depiction of both human and animal subjects against the backdrop of dense jungle foliage, this print captures not only the spirit of adventure but also highlights the challenges faced by those serving in military professions during the 19th century. It serves as a fascinating historical document that transports us back in time while reminding us that laughter can be found even in unexpected situations.
