Seller's Description:
New. 1904832784. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-Flawless copy, brand new, pristine, never opened--184 pages; 118 color illustrations. Description: "With heavy-handed humor and a low subject-matter, the work of Thomas Rowlandson (1757-1827) provides an invaluable insight into the workings and mentality of late Georgian society. He was quite simply a product of his times, who relished recording the street life of London and whose drawings and etchings reveal an attraction to repulsive visions of wickedness and hardship, whilst maintaining a high degree of humanity. 'Thomas Rowlandson: Pleasures and Pursuits in Georgian England' reflects the growing emphasis on the social and political context of the satirical art of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. In so doing, it rescues Rowlandson from what essayist Vic Gatrell calls 'the immense condescension of posterity. ' This catalogue explores Rowlandson's unique perspective on Georgian society, on leisure and social life, and the crossing of class boundaries."--with a bonus offer--
