About this work
An etched caricature titled The triumph of gas lights shows a gas street lamp rising from a rocky base, radiating beams of light across a cloudy sky. A crescent moon with a face sits at upper left and a sunlike face appears at right, both seemingly overshadowed by the lamp, and a banner beneath carries a satirical verse. The print is attributed to James Sayers and dated 1810.
