A Sweating for Opposition by Dr. W-llis Dominisweaty and Co. March 6,1789
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the vibrant political scene of 18th century Britain. Created by the talented artist Thomas Rowlandson, this hand-coloured aquatint captures a pivotal moment in history with its intricate details and vivid colours. The image depicts a group of influential figures gathered around a fiery furnace, symbolizing the intensity of their opposition against the ruling powers. Among them are prominent personalities such as Edmund Burke, Charles Fox, and Richard Brinsley Sheridan, all known for their strong voices in politics and literature. The central figure is Dr. Francis Willis, renowned for his unconventional treatment methods involving "sweating" patients to cure mental illnesses. His presence highlights the intersection between medicine and politics during this era. Surrounded by flames fueled by passion and determination, these individuals embody the spirit of resistance against authority that characterized this period. The inclusion of Dorothea Jordan adds an intriguing touch to the composition as she was both an actress and mistress to George IV before he ascended to the throne. Rowlandson's masterful etching technique brings life to each character's expression while capturing every intricate detail with precision. This hand-tinted print serves as a visual time capsule that transports us back to one of Britain's most politically charged moments. As we admire this remarkable piece from Heritage Images collection today, it reminds us how art can preserve historical narratives through its powerful imagery.
