EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcoloured copperplate print by John Augustus Atkinson, we are transported back to the Regency era and into the bedroom of a weary traveller. Awoken every hour by the persistent innkeeper calling for stage-coach passengers, the traveller's face reflects pure exhaustion and frustration.
The intricate details in Atkinson's etching bring to life the miseries of human existence, capturing a moment that is both comical and relatable. The cluttered room, disheveled bed, and anxious expression on the traveller's face all contribute to the chaotic scene unfolding before us.
As we gaze upon this scene from over two centuries ago, we can't help but empathize with the poor traveller who just wants some peace and quiet after a long journey. The constant interruptions from the innkeeper serve as a reminder of how even in times past, modern inconveniences were still prevalent.
This print serves as a timeless reminder that no matter what era we live in, there will always be moments of frustration and annoyance that come with travel. Yet through it all, there is beauty in these shared experiences that connect us across time and space.
