EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching and engraving by Charles Willson Peale, titled "PHILADELPHIA, 1787. The Accident in Lombard-Street" takes us back to a bustling street scene in the heart of Philadelphia during the late 18th century. In this lively depiction, we witness an unexpected mishap that has caught the attention of both passersby and chimney sweeps alike. As a housewife makes her way home from a bake-house with her freshly baked pie in hand, disaster strikes when she accidentally drops it on Lombard Street. The sight brings amusement to the chimneysweeps who find joy in witnessing such an unfortunate incident unfold before their eyes. Peale's masterful artistry captures not only the humor but also the architectural beauty of this historic city. The intricate details of each building along Lombard Street transport us back to a time when Philadelphia was still shaping its identity as one of America's most significant cities. Amidst all the commotion, we notice an African American woman standing nearby, adding depth and diversity to this snapshot of daily life in 1787 Philadelphia. Even though it is just one moment frozen in time, this artwork serves as a window into history—a reminder that accidents happen even amidst ordinary routines and that laughter can be found even in unexpected places. This remarkable print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to appreciate Peale's talent for capturing both human interactions and architectural grandeur while providing us with glimpses into our nation's
