EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "High-Life Below Stairs, 1772" captures a lively scene from the 18th century. Created by Caldwell, George Paston, and John Collet, this illustration showcases the social caricatures of the time with over two hundred intricate details. In this bustling kitchen setting, we see men and women going about their daily tasks. A woman is seen tending to her hair while wearing an elegant bonnet, highlighting the importance of fashion even in lower-class households. Nearby, a maid is busy washing clothes in a tub as a cat curiously observes. The room is filled with various animals adding charm to the scene - a dog sits attentively beside its owner who enjoys his tankard of beer. A birdcage hangs above them housing colorful birds that bring life to this otherwise mundane space. Music fills the air as one man skillfully plays a stringed instrument known as a mandolin while others listen intently or engage in conversation. The mantelpiece displays warming pans indicating that heating was essential during colder times. Through satire and clever observation, this print offers us insight into everyday life below stairs during Britain's high society era. It serves as both entertainment and historical documentation for those interested in understanding eighteenth-century customs and occupations such as hairdressing, laundry work, servant roles, and more.
