EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense anger and protest in 18th century London. The image shows an Anti-Cromwell demonstration taking place on Suffolk Street in 1735. The true Effigies of the Members of the Calves Head Club, held on January 30th, 1734, are prominently displayed, with one figure holding an axe and another showcasing a calfs head. The Calves Head Club was known for its pro-Cromwell stance, but their provocative actions during this particular gathering infuriated the public to such an extent that they resorted to stoning the inn where the members were meeting. This scene depicts a mob of enraged individuals outside the Golden Eagle establishment, watching as it burns amidst their fury. The atmosphere is charged with tension and unruliness as rioters take to the streets. Men can be seen at windows overlooking the chaos while enjoying their drinks, further adding to the sense of defiance against authority. This engraving serves as both a historical record and a satirical commentary on political unrest in Britain during this time period. Preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this image offers us a glimpse into London's tumultuous past. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people were willing to express their discontent through acts of rebellion when they felt unheard or oppressed by those in power.
