EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and lively print titled "Highest Life in London" captures the essence of 19th-century city life. Created by Isaac Robert Cruikshank and George Cruikshank, this colour lithograph transports us to a world filled with excitement and merriment. The scene depicted is from the popular novel "Tom and Jerry Life in London" by Pierce Egan. We see Tom and Jerry, two well-known characters, immersing themselves in the extravagant lifestyle of the Corinthians at Almacks in the west of London. The image showcases their sporting spirit as they engage in a toe-to-toe competition. Mechanical colouring techniques have been employed to enhance every detail of this artwork, making it visually captivating. The use of bright hues adds an element of vibrancy to the already bustling atmosphere portrayed. Through this print, we catch a glimpse into a time when social gatherings were grand affairs, where high society mingled with ease. It offers us an opportunity to explore not only the fashion trends but also the leisure activities that defined that era. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let our imagination transport us back to 1870s London – a time when elegance met revelry on every corner.
