EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the early 18th century to witness the mesmerizing talent of Isaac Fawkes, an English conjurer. The image captures a moment during one of his renowned performances, specifically his bag trick. With an air of mystery and intrigue, Fawkes skillfully conceals his secrets within the depths of a seemingly ordinary bag. As we gaze upon this woodcut from a 1726 advertisement, we can almost hear the gasps of astonishment from the audience as Fawkes produces eggs and birds from within that very bag. His mastery over deception is evident in every detail - from his elaborate peruke wig to his enigmatic expression. Isaac Fawkes was not just a mere magician; he was a true mystic who delved into the realms of occultism and mysticism. His ability to manipulate reality through illusion made him an unparalleled entertainer in England at that time. This portrait serves as both a testament to Fawkes' extraordinary talents and as a window into the world of entertainment in 18th-century England. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people were captivated by magic tricks and illusions that defied logic. Through this remarkable woodcut preserved by The Granger Collection, we can appreciate Isaac Fawkes' contribution to the art form while also marveling at how entertainment has evolved over time.
