EDITORS COMMENTS
This aquatint print, titled 'Southwark Cavalry' by Thomas Rowlandson, offers a glimpse into the vibrant and patriotic spirit of London during the late 18th century, specifically during the Wars of the French Revolution and the period of Home Defence from 1793 to 1802. The image, published in 1799 by Rudolph Ackermann, depicts a lively scene of Southwark Cavalry volunteers, proudly displaying their military prowess and loyalty to their country. Rowlandson's masterful use of aquatint technique brings the scene to life, with intricate details and rich colors that capture the essence of the moment. The cavalrymen, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, are shown in various poses, some mounted on horses, others preparing their weapons, and all exuding a sense of readiness and determination. The background is filled with onlookers, including women and children, who have gathered to support their local heroes. The print is part of a larger collection of 86 aquatints, entitled 'Loyal Volunteers of London and Environs', which was published by Ackermann in his renowned print shop located at 101 Strand, London. The publication of these prints was a testament to the widespread enthusiasm and commitment to the defense of London and its surrounding areas during a time of great uncertainty and upheaval. This image serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience of the people of London during the Wars of the French Revolution, and the importance of community spirit and unity in times of adversity.
