EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Thomas Rowlandson captures a humorous and satirical scene from 19th century England. Titled "A virago beating a man with a stick" the print depicts shoemaker Geoffry Heeltap desperately fleeing from his abusive wife. Known as a disciplinarian, the formidable woman wields a stick while chasing after her hapless husband. Handcoloured to enhance its visual impact, this wood engraving is part of W. H. Harrison's publication, The Humourist, which served as a delightful companion for Christmas firesides in 1831 London. Rowlandson's illustration showcases his exceptional talent for capturing lively characters and comical situations. The image provides insight into the customs and social dynamics of the time period. It humorously highlights the power dynamics within relationships and challenges traditional gender roles by portraying an assertive woman dominating her husband. With its detailed depiction of clothing, architecture, and facial expressions, this artwork offers viewers an authentic glimpse into early 19th-century England. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem in their private collection, allowing us to appreciate Rowlandson's skillful satire that continues to entertain audiences today. As we admire this piece of British culture from the past, it serves as a reminder that art can both amuse and enlighten us about our shared history.
