Date: 1750 - 1745 - 1761

From: Hogarth, William 1697-1764 :The original works of William Hogarth. London, sold by John and Josiah Boydell, 1790

By: Sullivan, Luke, 1705-1771

Reference: D-020-071

Description: Based on a historic moment, probably witnessed by Hogarth himself. It depicts British troops being marched out of London to their place of rendezvous on Finchley Common in December 1745, to defend the city against the threat of Jacobite invasion. Hogarth's engraving is partly a comic satire on disorder and indiscipline in the British army and partly a sympathetic portrayal of the disruption of civilian life caused by war. It presents a scene of leave-taking between distracted and drunken soldiers and women and children at the Tottenham Court turnpike. The soldiers in the foreground are moving in all directions, caught between the symbolism of the dead tree and brothel on the right, and that of the tree in full leaf and plant nursery on the left. The central group, posed against the British flag, show a handsome grenadier being tugged in two directions, on one side by a pretty pregnant ballad-singer with a print of the Duke of Cumberland hanging from her basket and a copy of God save the King, and on the other by a haggard older woman with a Catholic cross round her neck, who threatens to batter him with rolled-up copies of `The Jacobite Journal' and `The Remembrance, or a Weekley slap in the face for the Ministry'. On the left is a drumer giving the signal to depart, while his wife and son tug at his clothes. In the corner an intent boy plays his fife with his regimental trumpet at his side. On the right a messenger has slid into a puddle, his friend is offering him water, but he turns away reaching out to his wife for a `real' drink as she pours him a tote of gin while the baby on her back reaches out for the bottle on its string round the mother's neck. In the background tidy ranks are marching away with bayonets in hand. Behind the inn sign of the King's Head, with its picture of Charles II, the whores wave and cheer from windows ranked in order and topped by cats on the roof. In the first window, the large-bosomed bawd - Mother Douglas of Covent Garden, prays for the safe return of the troops. On the opposite side of the street a crowd gathers to watch a knuckle fight. Behind the grenadier in the centre, a fat sergeant with his pike, watches a young officer kiss a milk girl and squeeze her breast. As her pail sinks to the ground a man tips the milk into his hat; a boy sweep is watching this and so is a pastry cook, so rapt that he doesn't see a soldier reaching to steal his pies. On the left a whispering Frenchman passes a note to a disquised Jacobite. On a laden cart two women puff at pipes while a young woman breast feeds her baby. Source of descriptive information - Uglow, Jenny. Hogarth, a life and a world (London, 1997); Literary Encyclopaedia (www.litencyc.com) Other Titles - The March to Finchley Inscriptions: Recto - beneath image - Title Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788), the Young Pretender, or `Bonnie Prince Charlie' had landed in Scotland on 23 July 1745 and defeated government forces at the Battle of Prestonpans just east of Edinburgh in September, before marching south into England. By December he had reached Derby, 120 miles north of London, virtually unchallenged. London was seized with panic and British troops were recalled from the Low Countries to deal with the situation. By the time Hogarth decided to paint the scene in late 1749, the result of the scare and consequent slaughter of the rebel Jacobite army by George II's third son, William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland (1721-1765) at the battle of Culloden on 16 April 1746, was past history. Hogarth could afford therefore to deal with the crisis in a more relaxed and humorous way than would have been the case had he been depicting the scene at the immediate time.
