Synopsis
'Buy my Dish of great Eeles, Any Old Iron take money for, Twelve Pence a Peck Oysters, Buy my fat Chickens, Fair Lemons & Oranges' Marcellus Laroon's The Cryes of the City of London drawne after the Life presents, in seventy-four striking portraits, a panorama of London's marginal men and women: street vendors, hustlers and petty criminals together with the shouts (or cries) they used to hawk their wares, as they existed at the end of the seventeenth century. Following an illustrated introduction which sets Laroon's engravings within the tradition of the Cries, each portrait is beautifully reproduced with a commentary that illuminates the individual street-seller and their trade. The commentaries provide a wealth of detail about their dress, the equipment they used to ply their trade, the meat and drink of those they served and their own diets. This book also mines historical archives for contemporary reports about the colourful and often desperate lives of these hawkers. Drawing on the historic material found in the Burney Collection of English newspapers, this book provides a fascinating insight into the men and women who made their livelihood, legally and illegally, on the streets of England's capital., 'Buy my Dish of great Eeles, Any Old Iron take money for, Twelve Pence a Peck Oysters, Buy my fat Chickens, Fair Lemons & Oranges' Marcellus Laroon's 'The Cryes of the City of London drawne after the Life' presents, in seventy-four striking portraits, a panorama of London's marginal men and women: street vendors, hustlers and petty criminals together with the shouts (or cries) they used to hawk their wares, as they existed at the end of the seventeenth century.

This book provides a fascinating insight into the men and women who made their livelihood, legally and illegally, on the streets of England's capital., Seventy-four striking portraits of men and women on the margins of London society in the seventeenth century--including street vendors and petty criminals. "Buy my Dish of great Eeles, Any Old Iron take money for, Twelve Pence a Peck Oysters, Buy my fat Chickens, Fair Lemons & Oranges." At the end of the seventeenth century, the artist Marcellus Laroon became well known for a series of drawings that illustrated London's marginal men and women: street vendors, hustlers, and petty criminals. This set of drawings came to be known as The Cries of London after the shouts and cries vendors used to hawk their wares. Hawkers, Beggars and Quacks presents seventy-four of Laroon's striking portraits. Following an illustrated introduction that contextualizes The Cries of London , each portrait is beautifully reproduced with a commentary on the individual street-seller and their trade. These commentaries provide a wealth of detail about each seller's dress, the equipment they used to ply their trade, their own diets, and the diets of those they served. Drawing on historic material found in the British Library's Burney Collection of English newspapers, Hawkers, Beggars and Quacks provides a fascinating insight into the men and women who made their livelihood--legally and illegally--on the streets of England's capital.
