| Description |
English: 'A Walk from Bridge Street to St John's Hall' This caricature entitled 'A Walk from Bridge Street to St John's Hall' shows a man walking along with his gown wrapped around his arms which he holds behind his back. He wears a brown coat and a black top hat. The figure depicted has been indentifed as the physician Sir Isaac Pennington (1745-1817). Richard Dighton (1795/6-1865) was the son of Robert Dighton (1751-1814), a singer and draughtsman whose father was a printseller. Robert Dighton began producing caricatures in 1781 and continued until his death when Richard continued his work in much the same style. The Dighton's subjects ranged from Royal and parlimentary figures to people from the city and the stage. This print may have been produced by either father or son, it is only signed 'R. Dighton'. Those Dighton prints that the Herschels collected have quite a clear biographical relationship with John FW Herschel. This print, 'A Walk from Bridge Street to St John's Hall' produced in 1815 makes reference to John FW Herschel's college at Cambridge, St John's. |
