EDITORS COMMENTS
A Siege" is a captivating engraving print that captures the essence of humor and wit. Created in the early 19th century by Thomas Rowlandson, this piece showcases his mastery of storytelling through visual art. The illustration was originally published as an accompaniment to "The Humourist" by W.H. Harrison in Ackermann's publication.
This delightful scene depicts a woman under siege from her own desires and emotions, surrounded by symbols of love and intimacy. With its clever use of humor and satire, the engraving pokes fun at societal norms surrounding sexuality and relationships during this time period.
The print features Rowlandson's signature style, characterized by bold lines, expressive characters, and a touch of whimsy. The black-and-white color palette adds to the piece's timeless charm, making it a delightful addition to any art collection or enthusiast's library.
