Le débarquement du chevalier John Bull et de sa famille a Boulogne sur Mer. The landing of Sir John Bull & his family, at Boulogne sur Mer.
[After Henry William Bunbury] [Engraved by Gillray]
Publishd May 31.st 1792 by H Humphrey, N.o 18 Old Bond Street.
Etching with aquatint, sheet 245 x 660mm (9¾ x 26"). Trimmed within plate. Central fold. Slight damage on right edge of paper.
Three sturdy French fishwives carry English travellers ashore through the water from a boat at right, while two others attempt to coax an indignant stout lady from the vessel. On the left, a lively group of French figures awaits their arrival, including a postilion in oversized riding boots holding a paper inscribed ‘Poste Royale’, hotel touts displaying cards, a monk, a fishwife, and a grotesquely shaved dog, with cliffs beyond. The foremost English passenger, a typical John Bull in top-boots, is borne ashore with comic determination as his wig slips and hat falls into the sea; behind him are a lady in riding dress and a fashionably dressed younger man. The fishwives wear frilled caps, short petticoats, earrings, and crosses. Dorothy George, 'Smollett describes the miseries of a landing at Boulogne, 'Travels through Italy and France', 1766. Frederick Reynolds was forcibly carried ashore by fishwives at Calais in 1792, at least forty 'poissardes' wading towards the vessel. He attributes this to 'sans-culottes principles'.
