EDITORS COMMENTS
George Cruikshank's 'Dandies of 1817 & Monstrosities of 1818' is a vivid and humorous commentary on the fashionable society of Regency-era London, as depicted in this stunning coloured etching published by H. Humphry in 1818. This image is the second part of a series, with the first instalment satirically titled 'The Dandies of 1817'. Cruikshank masterfully captures the extravagance and absurdity of the latest trends, with dandies in their brightly coloured coats and breeches, and women in oversized bonnets teetering on tiptoe. The title 'Monstrosities of 1818' suggests that the artist intended to mock the extreme and bizarre fashion choices of the time. Hyde Park, a popular destination for the fashionable elite, serves as the backdrop for this lively scene, filled with caricatures of contemporary fashions that continue to intrigue and amuse us today. Cruikshank's etching is a testament to the power of satire as a means of social commentary, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the ever-evolving nature of fashion.
