EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Gluttony". Thomas Rowlandson skillfully captures the essence of one of the seven deadly sins. Measuring 27.3x22.2 cm, this pen and watercolor masterpiece is a true testament to Rowlandson's artistic prowess. The scene unfolds in a bustling restaurant, where an opulent feast is laid out before us. The painting depicts a moment of indulgence and excess as diners eagerly partake in their meal, oblivious to the consequences of their insatiable appetites. A waiter scurries around, catering to their every whim with an air of resignation on his face. Rowlandson's attention to detail is remarkable; he masterfully portrays the greed and gluttony that permeate every aspect of this dining experience. From the overflowing plates piled high with sumptuous delicacies to the strained expressions on each diner's face, it becomes evident that no amount of food will ever be enough for these voracious individuals. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of our own tendencies towards overindulgence and excess in today's society. It prompts us to reflect upon our own relationship with food and question whether we too are guilty of succumbing to gluttonous desires. "Gluttony" by Thomas Rowlandson is a thought-provoking piece that transcends time, reminding us all to tread lightly when it comes to our appetites lest we fall victim to its deadly allure
