EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful 18th-century print by Thomas Rowlandson, titled "The Bear and Bear Leader - passing the Hotel d Angleterre, 1776" we are transported back in time to witness a scene from the grand tour. A young man, accompanied by his tutor and chaperone, is seen strolling past the iconic Hotel d'Angleterre. The composition exudes a sense of adventure and curiosity as the trio explores foreign lands. The young man appears eager and enthusiastic, clutching onto his bag filled with essentials for their journey. His tutor walks beside him, imparting knowledge and guidance along the way. Rowlandson's attention to detail is evident in every element of this artwork. From the architectural beauty of the hotel to the expressions on each character's face, there is a lively energy that brings this historical moment to life. "The Bear and Bear Leader" serves as a reminder of an era when travel was not only about leisure but also about education and cultural enrichment. It captures both the excitement of discovery and the importance of having a trusted mentor by one's side during such expeditions. This print invites us to imagine ourselves amidst these travelers as they embark on their grand tour through Europe. It reminds us that even centuries later, there is still much we can learn from our predecessors' thirst for knowledge and exploration.
