Cockfighting, an ancient sport steeped in tradition and excitement, captivated audiences with its fierce battles. Meanwhile, the renowned artist William Hogarth continued to leave his mark on London's artistic scene with his thought-provoking works. London's Masonic Lodges buzzed with activity as secret societies flourished during this time. These enigmatic gatherings fostered camaraderie among members while guarding their esoteric knowledge from prying eyes. Curiosity about the celestial realm led to groundbreaking discoveries like the early map of the Moon in 1635. This intricate depiction unveiled our closest cosmic neighbor in unprecedented detail, sparking wonder and fueling humanity's fascination with space. April bloomed vibrantly through Twelve Months of Flowers in 1730—a color engraving that captured nature's delicate beauty. Laurent Bordelon skillfully brought forth this visual delight for all to enjoy and appreciate. Across the Atlantic Ocean, Newport, Rhode Island thrived amidst colonial America's bustling landscape. A lithograph from 1864 transported us back to this vibrant coastal town as it stood proudly in 1730—its rich history etched into every brick and cobblestone. Meanwhile, Mexico City pulsated with life as it embraced its role as a cultural hub in Mexico during this period. The cityscape bustled with activity—a testament to its significance within Latin American society at that time. Abraham Newland left an indelible mark on British currency by serving as Chief Cashier at The Bank of England—an influential figure shaping financial transactions throughout 1730s Britain.
