Alice Loxton: 'Uproar! Scandal, Satire and Printmakers in Georgian London'

Set against a backdrop of royal madness, political intrigue, the birth of modern celebrity, French revolution, American independence and the Napoleonic Wars, 'Uproar! Scandal, Satire and Printmakers in Georgian London' follows the satirists as they lampoon those in power, from the Prince Regent to Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire. Their prints and illustrations deconstruct the political and social landscape with surreal and razor-sharp wit, as the three men vie with each other to create the most iconic images of the day.

As well as being an HCA History alumna, Alice Loxton is a historian and the lead female presenter at History Hit TV, where she regularly co-presents documentaries with Dan Snow.

This event is organised by Blackwell's, South Bridge. Please reserve tickets on their website (link).
