Christmas Gambolls, Boxing Day, 1747 - A Chaotic Festive Scene in Eighteenth Century Britain
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of a bustling street scene on Boxing Day in 1747. The image is an illustration from "Social Caricature in the Eighteenth Century" a book by George Paston (pseudonym of Emily Morse Symonds), published in London in 1905. The chaotic atmosphere depicted here reflects the lively energy that filled the streets during this traditional post-Christmas celebration. In this vibrant snapshot of British society, we witness a crowd of people engaging in various activities amidst a maze of market stalls and fruit stands. Amidst the chaos, one can spot individuals going about their occupations - be it trading at their stalls or navigating through the scrum. The presence of a beadle suggests religious undertones to this festive gathering, emphasizing its connection to Christianity and Christmas. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to the image, transporting us back to an era when life was simpler yet full of vigor. Through over two hundred illustrations like this one, George Paston beautifully captured moments from eighteenth-century Britain's social fabric. As we gaze upon this historical gem from "The Print Collector" let us appreciate how traditions have evolved over time while cherishing our own unique holiday celebrations today.
