EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Street Entertainments in Old London: The Peep-Show" we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of 18th-century London. The image, a colour lithograph by Robert D. , showcases one of the popular forms of entertainment during that era - the peep show. As we gaze upon the scene, we see a group of children gathered around a wooden booth adorned with vibrant illustrations and enticing words. Their eyes sparkle with excitement as they eagerly await their turn to peer through small holes and catch a glimpse of the hidden wonders within. The street entertainer, dressed in flamboyant attire, skillfully manipulates intricate mechanisms behind the scenes to bring these miniature worlds to life. With each twist and turn, he transports his young audience into enchanting realms filled with adventure and imagination. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of simple pleasures. It reminds us that even amidst the hustle and bustle of city life, there is always room for wonderment and joy. Through this beautifully preserved piece from old London's history, we are reminded of our own capacity for childlike curiosity and how it can transport us beyond our everyday realities.
