The Honeymoon
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the dark humor and moral commentary of Thomas Rowlandson's iconic illustrations from "The English Dance of Death". In this color engraving, we are transported to a scene filled with deceit and trickery. The newlyweds, a husband and wife, appear blissfully unaware as they embark on their honeymoon. However, lurking in the shadows is an ominous skeleton representing the consequences of their actions. Rowlandson skillfully portrays themes such as adultery, cuckoldry, alcoholism, and old age through his intricate details. The husband's lover can be seen hiding behind a curtain, symbolizing infidelity within their marriage. Meanwhile, the wife remains oblivious to her husband's secret affair. The artist uses satire to highlight societal vices prevalent during his time. With meticulous strokes of his engraving tool, Rowlandson exposes human weaknesses while inviting viewers to reflect upon their own behavior. This print serves as a cautionary tale about the perils of deception and immorality that can haunt even seemingly happy relationships. It reminds us that appearances can be deceiving and urges us to consider our choices carefully. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today but available for public appreciation thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts in preserving fine art history; this engraving continues to captivate audiences with its timeless message about human nature and its flaws.
