The Promenade at Carlisle House, 1781 - A Glimpse into London's Elegant Society
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This coloured engraving transports us back to the vibrant streets of 18th-century London. The scene depicts "The Promenade at Carlisle House" a renowned gathering place for the city's elite in Soho Square. As we delve into this snapshot of history, we are immediately drawn to the graceful figures of women strolling along the promenade. Dressed in exquisite gowns that epitomize fashion and elegance of the era, they embody beauty ideals and captivate all who lay eyes upon them. In this bustling social hub, where coffee and tea flow freely, these women engage in lively conversations while indulging in evening pleasures. Their presence exudes confidence and sophistication as they navigate through a world filled with entertainments tailored exclusively for their enjoyment. Amongst them, two notable figures stand out - Harriet Montagu and Maria Townley. These beauties command attention with their poise and charm, capturing hearts wherever they go. Their allure is immortalized by John Raphael Smith's masterful mezzotint technique which brings forth every intricate detail of their enchanting features. This print serves as a testament to an era when society reveled in its own splendor. It invites us to witness a moment frozen in time; a glimpse into an age where beauty was celebrated, fashion reigned supreme, and evenings were spent immersed in refined company.
