EDITORS COMMENTS
Chairs to Mend, Cries of London, c1750 captures a vibrant snapshot of 18th century street life in England. In this etching by JM, we are transported back in time to witness the daily hustle and bustle of a chair mender plying his trade. Standing proudly in front of a towering structure, the chair mender carries a substantial bundle of cane over his shoulder, symbolizing his expertise and dedication to his craft. Accompanying him faithfully is an endearing dog, perhaps serving as both companion and guardian amidst the bustling streets. The monochrome black and white aesthetic adds depth and character to the scene while highlighting the intricate details of their attire – from the man's hat to his traditional dress that reflects the fashion trends of eighteenth-century England. This artwork is part of 'Cries of London, ' an iconic series depicting various street vendors and their distinctive calls. It offers us a glimpse into an era when professions were often announced loudly through these cries or chants. Preserved within Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this print serves as a testament to not only one man's occupation but also represents countless individuals who contributed to the fabric of society during this period. As we admire this piece today, let us appreciate its historical significance as it transports us back in time.
