[Buffeting the Bear] [&] [Playing at Leapfrog.]
[Possibly published by P. Stampa c.1800.]
Two mezzotints with engraving. Sheets c.165 x 230mm (6½ x 9"). Trimmed within plate, losing title at bottom, pasted on album sheet.
A pair of ovals depicting children at play. The London publisher P Stampa published very similar versions (BM 2010,7081.1678 & 2010,7081.2030) but, as these examples have been reworked (with line engraving around the eyes), it is impossible to tell whether they are the same plates).
[Ref: 60173] £190.00
