Thomas Rowlandson Boeken

13 juli 1756 – 21 april 1827

Thomas Rowlandson was een Engelse kunstenaar en karikaturist wiens werken worden gekenmerkt door een satirisch en vaak provocerend beeld van de maatschappij van zijn tijd. Zijn satirische tekeningen en illustraties vingen meesterlijk menselijke zwakheden en maatschappelijke misstanden in met humor en een levendige stijl. Rowlandson's unieke stijl en zijn vermogen om humor te combineren met kritische observatie maken hem tot een belangrijke figuur in de geschiedenis van de Britse kunst en visuele satire.

The absurdities of fashion, the perils of love, political machinations and royal intrigue were the daily subject matter of Thomas Rowlandson, one of the leading caricaturists of Georgian England. Rowlandson was working at a time when English satirical prints were prized by collectors across Europe. A number of the works in the exhibition were purchased by George, Prince of Wales, later Prince Regent and King George IV. Ironically the Prince was often the butt of caricaturists' jokes and sometimes tried to prevent the publication of images that he felt were particularly offensive. Through Rowlandson's drawings and prints, the exhibition examines life at the turn of the 19th century. 0Exhibition: The Queen's Gallery, Palace of Holyroodhouse, Edinburgh, UK (11.2013).
