The Surrey-Wonder an anatomical-farce as it was dissected at [the] Theatre-Royal, Lincolns-Inn-Fields. [graphic]Vertue, James, 1725-1776, printmaker[December 1726]eng"Satire on Mary Toft, the "rabbit breeder" and those who were duped by her fraud. The interior of a large room, presumably intended as Lacy's bagnio in Leicester Fields, in the centre of which Toft reclines on a chair attended by a doctor, John Howard, while a gentleman identified by Stephens as Nathaniel St André, wearing a hat, has laid down a walking stick and kneels to lift a rabbit that is emerging from below her skirts. On the left, three men enter through an open door, the foremost, evidently John Maubray, holding up a specimen bottle and grasping by the shoulder another doctor, who points towards Toft; another holding a staff aplpears to be a constable. Other men (one perhaps intended as her husband) gather behind Toft's chair; Samuel Molyneux, wearing a hat and holding a walking stick turns away in disgust as a midwife holds up a "new-born" rabbit. On a table in the background lie a hat, ink stand and specimens of Toft's rabbits; the walls are hung with five paintings and a large map of Surrey."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image, between two columns of verse.Artist and printmaker from later state: Geo.
