-
Isaac Cruikshank after Woodward. First edition. Approximately 1807. Framed in a later black and gilt frame under glass. Title etched below image. Date of publication from British Museum catalogue. Plate numbered "295" in upper right corner. Plate from: Woodward, G.M. Caricature magazine, or Hudibrastic mirror. London : Thomas Tegg, [1808?], v. 4. Also issued separately. Visible plate: 26.5cm x 36.5cm. Frame: 43cm x 52cm. The plate is a little darkened, and with a couple of very light creases to the corner. But the hand colouring is very good, and the plate still worthy of display. Frame is a little dated, and with slight handling, but sound. Can be shipped without frame if required. "A grotesque old doctor, with carbuncled nose, approaches a lady, bowing low and holding out a clumsy petticoat. He says: "Mrs Jenny said your Ladyship complain'd of being cold about the loins - so I have Just stept in with a warm flannel petticoat." She is seated beside a tea-table, and throws up her arms, flinching back in horror; she says: "I have no loins fellow! do you want to make a monster of me?!!" She wears a high-waisted, short-sleeved dress, under which her legs are defined. Her little dog barks at the doctor. A large urn and a small cup (overturned) and saucer, are the only objects on the table." (British Museum online catalogue). .
