EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Shaving a Forestaller, August 15,1800" by Thomas Rowlandson takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century Britain. In this vividly hand-coloured etching, Rowlandson skillfully captures the essence of a barbershop scene filled with intriguing characters and subtle social commentary. Amidst the chaos of bodies and bowls, we witness an unfortunate investor seated in a barber's chair. His face reflects disappointment as he reads the latest financial news while awaiting his turn for a shave. The concept of finance intertwines with everyday life as stocks and shares are discussed even within the confines of a humble barbershop. Rowlandson's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the barber sharpening his cut-throat razor on a strop to another customer receiving shaving cream or foam. The long wigs worn by some patrons highlight their high societal status, contrasting sharply with those less fortunate individuals who can only afford basic grooming services. This artwork serves as both entertainment and social critique, reminding us that financial investments can sometimes lead to misery rather than prosperity. With its vibrant colours and meticulous craftsmanship, "Shaving a Forestaller" transports viewers back in time while offering insight into the complex dynamics between money, occupation, and personal satisfaction during this era.
