Description |
English: Plate 12: A very elegant lady advances (left to right) as if in a ball-room, with a cavalier who holds the tips of her fingers and bows to a stolid English family walking in the opposite direction. She makes a graceful inclination of the head. John Bull has taken off his hat, but his two daughters march forward like grenadiers, staring at the French couple. There are also in the family party two young men and a lady with a sunshade, her head concealed by a poke bonnet. The background may be intended for Hyde Park; the landscape is completely rural and a horse-race is in progress. Above the design, Caricatures &a'. 1802

Notes |
(Description and comment from M.Dorothy George, 'Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires in the British Museum', VIII, 1947) According to 'London und Paris' the French lady is Mme Récamier. For the series see Colas, BMSat 2837. See BMSats 9958, 9959. For English copies see BMSats 9830, 9831. BMSats 22 and 23 of the series are catalogued under 1814. (Supplementary information) See 1856,0712.596 for comment on the series. This plate was copied in 'London und Paris' X (1802) pp.182-3, which claims that the lady is Mme Récamier. Dorothy George states that the design is after Carle Vernet, but gives no evidence. For a duplicate impression, see 1868,0808.248. |

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
