Morning and in Low Spirits, a Lock Up scene in a Spunging House, Carey Street
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the somber atmosphere of a lock-up scene within the walls of a spunging house on Carey Street. Created by Isaac Robert Cruikshank in 1824, this color lithograph offers an intriguing glimpse into the dark underbelly of London during the Regency era. The image portrays an interior filled with shame and despair as petty criminals find themselves imprisoned for their wrongdoings. The engraving depicts prisoners surrounded by sheriffs' officers, emphasizing their helplessness against extortionate fees demanded for their release. As morning dawns upon them, these despondent detainees face not only physical confinement but also the consequences of their actions. Their faces tell tales of regret and remorse, reflecting the weight of their hangovers from both alcohol and poor choices made. Through this cartoon-like illustration, Cruikshank skillfully conveys society's judgment towards those who have fallen afoul of the law. It serves as a reminder that even in times past, criminality carried heavy repercussions that extended beyond mere imprisonment. This thought-provoking piece from "The English Spy" series is part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic value but also in its ability to transport us back to an era where justice was swift and unforgiving for those caught on the wrong side of it.
