A New Speaker and The Wedding Night, February 7,1789
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white etching by Thomas Rowlandson that takes us back to the political landscape of 18th century Britain. In this intriguing scene, we find ourselves in the bedchamber of Charles James Fox, the right honorable speaker of the House of Commons. The room is adorned with elegance as we witness an intimate moment between two prominent figures - Charles James Fox and William Pitt the Younger. As they engage in conversation, their speeches are symbolized by speech bubbles floating above them. This artwork beautifully captures the essence of political discussions during that time. Rowlandson's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of a woman standing beside Fox's bed. Her presence adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this historical tableau. It is worth noting that she holds a vial containing cantharides or Spanish fly – known for its aphrodisiac properties – suggesting a playful nod towards romantic encounters on this wedding night. This print offers us a glimpse into both the personal lives and political affairs intertwining during this period. With its intricate composition and masterful execution, "A New Speaker and The Wedding Night" invites viewers to reflect upon the complexities inherent in power dynamics within British society at that time. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece serves as a testament to Rowlandson's artistic prowess while shedding light on an important era in British history.
