EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print titled "I'll Tell You What! That Such Things Are We Must Allow" takes us back to England in the late 18th century. The engraving, skillfully created by Henry Wigstead, depicts renowned playwright Elizabeth Inchbald engrossed in her writing at a table adorned with a bottle of gin and the literary works of Aristotle, Rochester, and Congreve. As Inchbald passionately crafts her puffs for plays, a mischievous dog leaves its mark on a paper strewn across the floor. The title itself alludes to two of Inchbald's notable plays while also hinting at the unconventional nature of her work during that time. This romanticized portrayal invites us into an intimate moment within history where creativity flourished amidst societal norms. The artwork exudes nostalgia and charm with its traditional Victorian style and aged appearance. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage embedded in historic art forms like engravings. Through this illustrative technique, Wigstead masterfully captures not only Inchbald's dedication but also the essence of an era long gone. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are transported back to an age when literature played a vital role in shaping society's perceptions. It reminds us that even amidst chaos or unexpected interruptions – symbolized here by the dog's defecation – true artists persist in their pursuit of creative expression.
