Hiring a servant [graphic].Rowlandson, Thomas, 1756-1827, printmaker[1811]eng"An obese 'cit' and his wife sit side by side at a small round breakfast-table, facing a tall handsome young woman who stands before them. The wife, registering surprise, asks: "What Situation in my Family woud you wish to undertake Young Woman." She answers demurely: "Ma'am I should like to be under Your Man Cook by Way of Improvement." The 'cit', excited and angry, exclaims: "What's that you say I'll be D--nd If you shall be under my Man Cook or any other man in my house." The fat cook, outside the open door (right), laughs uproariously. A large fierce cat advances towards the girl. On the table are tea-things, a large urn, and boiled eggs."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Printmaker from British Museum catalogue.Beginning of imprint, including date, has been removed from plate; date of publication from British Museum catalogue and Grego.Plate numbered "124" in upper right corner.Plate from: Woodward, G.M.
