EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Hall of Infamy, alias Oyster Saloon in Brydges-Street, or New Covent Garden Hell" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century London. The hand-coloured engraving by Isaac Robert Cruikshank captures a vivid scene filled with intriguing characters and lively activity. In this chaotic interior setting, we see a diverse group of individuals engaging in various activities. Men dressed in green attire stand out among the crowd while an old harridan fiercely beats them with her cane. Sharps and gentlemen mingle with ladies as they enjoy their drinks, creating an atmosphere that is both rowdy and vibrant. Amidst the commotion, a young woman clutches onto her fur muff while observing the scene unfold before her eyes. Flash man Tom stands tall amongst impures as he indulges himself in his drink of choice. The room resonates with music composed by Giuseppe Verdi, adding another layer of excitement to this already animated space. This print from Fine Art Finder not only provides a glimpse into the past but also invites us to imagine what life was like during this era. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people sought entertainment and camaraderie within these lively establishments.
