1783
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
The Times is a 1783 ink by Thomas Rowlandson, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting depicts a scene with multiple figures, including a woman in a blue dress and a helmet, who is holding a scale and a sword. A man in a red coat is shown being restrained by another figure, while a group of people are gathered around them. The background features a columned structure with a crown on top. The woman in the blue dress appears to be a symbol of justice or liberty, as indicated by the scale and sword she holds. The restrained man may represent a figure being held accountable for their actions. To learn more about this style of art, look up the Romanticism movement.
Thomas Rowlandson (; 13 July 1757 – 21 April 1827) was an English artist and caricaturist of the Georgian Era, noted for his political satire and social observation.
