Dublin Horse Drawn Hospital Maternity Palladian Passersby Rotunda Neo Classical
EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving takes us back to the bustling streets of Dublin in 1795. The focal point of the image is the magnificent Rotunda maternity hospital, a true architectural gem designed by Richard Cassells and completed in 1757. Its grandeur is evident as it stands proudly amidst the surrounding buildings, showcasing Palladian and Georgian influences with its neo-classical design. The scene comes alive with activity as horse-drawn carriages traverse the street, their elegant presence adding a touch of sophistication to this urban cityscape. Passersby can be seen going about their daily routines, creating a sense of movement and vitality within the frame. The artist, James Malton, has masterfully captured not only the physical structures but also the essence of life in Dublin during this period. Through his meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of colouring techniques, he transports us back in time to witness a moment frozen forever on paper. This print serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece. It allows us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty of Dublin's past but also offers glimpses into everyday life that would otherwise be lost to time. A truly remarkable piece that reminds us how art can transcend centuries and connect us with our shared human experience.
