EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the bustling market place of Lichfield, the birthplace of Dr. Samuel Johnson, in the year 1784. The scene is a vibrant tableau of 18th century English life, with a lively mix of people and traffic filling the cobblestone streets. At the corner of the image, the historic Guildhall can be seen, a landmark that was a significant part of Johnson's childhood. Born in 1709, Johnson is considered one of the most influential figures in the English language. He is best known for compiling the first comprehensive English dictionary, which took him and his assistant, James Boswell, eight years to complete. The dictionary, published in 1755, is a testament to Johnson's deep understanding of the English language and his commitment to preserving its richness and complexity. Despite his literary accomplishments, Johnson was also deeply connected to his hometown of Lichfield. He often returned there to visit his mother and to seek solace from the hustle and bustle of London. The market place depicted in this print would have been a familiar sight to him, with its bustling shops and lively atmosphere. The print also serves as a reminder of the historical significance of Lichfield beyond its connection to Johnson. The city has a rich history that dates back to Roman times, and its stunning cathedral, which can be seen in the background of the print, is a popular tourist destination to this day. Overall, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the sounds, sights, and smells of a busy market place were a daily part of life.
