EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Thomas Rowlandson, titled "Miseries of London, or a Surly Saucy Hackney Coachman" we are transported back to the bustling streets of 19th century Britain. The scene captures the essence of a heated argument between a cab driver and his passengers on a dark June night in 1814. The hand-colored image showcases the vibrant gas lighting that illuminates the city, casting an eerie glow on the characters involved. The surly coachman, with his comically exaggerated features and rude demeanor, engages in a dispute with his frustrated customers. Their animated gestures and expressions convey their exasperation at this unpleasant encounter. Rowlandson's satire skillfully highlights the miseries faced by both drivers and passengers during this time period. It serves as a humorous commentary on the challenges associated with road transport in London. This artwork is part of "Miseries of London" an iconic series that depicts various aspects of life in the city during this era. With its detailed portrayal of occupation and profession, it offers us valuable insight into historical transportation practices. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this hand-tinted print not only showcases Rowlandson's artistic talent but also provides us with a glimpse into daily life in 19th century Britain.
