Celebrating Drunk Drunkenness Eccentric Member Merry Orgy English Society
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and lively colour engraving, titled "The Union Club, 1801" captures the essence of a merry celebration in Georgian England. Created by the renowned satirical artist James Gillray, this print offers a humorous glimpse into English society during that era. In this scene, we witness an extravagant party at The Union Club. The room is filled with eccentric members indulging in excessive drinking and revelry. Gillray's sharp wit and keen eye for satire are evident as he portrays the drunkenness and merriment with great detail. The cartoon-like characters depicted here add to the jovial atmosphere of the image. Each member seems to have their own unique personality, contributing to the overall sense of chaos and fun. This artwork serves as a playful commentary on social norms and excesses prevalent in Georgian society. "The Union Club, 1801" not only showcases Gillray's exceptional artistic skills but also provides us with valuable insights into historical customs and attitudes towards celebration during that time period. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people found joy in coming together to let loose and enjoy life's pleasures. This delightful print from Fine Art Finder invites viewers to step back in time and immerse themselves in an uproarious moment from English history – a reminder that laughter has always been an essential part of human existence regardless of societal conventions or boundaries.
