London Pub by SW Fores N.3 Piccadilly December 1 1794.
Scarce hand-coloured etching by Isaac Cruikshank; 370 x 280mm (14½ x 11"). On paper watermarked 'J Whatman.' Small margins. Tears repaired with acid free tape. Some cockling and light staining at top left.
With her right hand outstretched and left on her breast, the tall, attractive young lady bends to the right as though she is performing a passionate song. A shorter, stockier woman (possibly Lady Buckinghamshire, Albinia Hobart?) is seen looking up at her from the right. She is clutching a fan and is sporting a hat. Both have partially exposed breasts and short-waisted gowns, a look that suits one but not the other. The singer wears a large scarf around her neck, with the ends tucked in at the waist. Her hair has two upright ostrich feathers, and her ears are adorned with big rings. She is protesting with her right hand above a platter of tartlets and jellies that a footman is holding. His visage and outdated attire are horrifyingly parodied. A full-length portrait of a woman wearing broad, hooped petticoats, a lace apron, and a flat hat in the style of around 1740 hangs on the wall. Her right hand is in a small muff.

Pub July 1829 by S Gans 15 Southampton Street Strand (Sole Publisher of P.Prys Caricatures).
Hand coloured etching, sheet 250 x 350mm (10 x 13¾"). Trimmed within plate.
A lady stands complacently in a décolleté dress with enormously full sleeves to the wrist. She extends one arm to a lady's maid, who kneels, blowing into the sleeve through a long tobacco-pipe, the bowl of which is inside the sleeve, and is distressed by the effort. The left arm hangs down, the sleeve still in limp folds awaiting blowing up. Her hair is dressed in enormous upstanding loops. The maid is coquettishly and fashionably dressed, with a high frilled cap trimmed with stiff ribbon loops, and a small frilled white apron. Behind is a toilet table on which lie four tobacco-pipes. Print most likely made by 'Sharpshooter' John Philips (fl.1825-1831) known as the "false Paul Pry" of 1829 who used Heath's signature of a tiny figure of John Liston .
