These works are among Wheatley's most celebrated contributions to the genre of social realism and urban life depiction in the late 18th century. The series consists of thirteen images that vividly capture the street vendors of London, each engaged in their daily activities and vocations. These vendors, known as "cries," were a common sight in the bustling streets of London, selling a variety of goods such as fruits, vegetables, fish, and other commodities.
Wheatley's "Cries of London" series is notable for its detailed and sympathetic portrayal of the working class. Each image is meticulously composed, highlighting the individuality and humanity of the street vendors. The artist's use of color, light, and composition not only brings out the vibrancy of urban life but also underscores the economic and social conditions of the time. The series serves as both an artistic achievement and a historical document, providing insights into the daily lives of ordinary Londoners during the late 18th century.
The popularity of Wheatley's "Cries of London" extended beyond the original paintings, as they were widely reproduced as prints. These prints were highly sought after and contributed to Wheatley's reputation as a leading artist of his time. The series has been praised for its combination of artistic skill and social commentary, making it a significant work in the history of British art.
Wheatley's ability to capture the essence of London's street life with such authenticity and empathy has ensured that the "Cries of London" series remains an enduring and influential work.
