- Abstract
-
"Print of a country 'quack' doctor standing behind an alarmed looking female patient with his fingers in her mouth. A young boy stands on the left holding a dish and pliers. In the background stands a woman wearing a ... cape and holding the side of her mouth whilst exhibiting obvious pain. Suspended from the ceiling is a bird in a cage. A bill on the wall reads: 'Barnaby Factotum / Draws teeth Bleeds and Shaves / Wigs made here, also sausages / wash Balls, Black puddings. / Scotch pills Powder for the Itch / Red Herrings / Breeches Balls / and small beer by the maker / In Utrumque Paratus'."--Royal Collection Trust online catalogue
"Print of a tailor seated cross legged on a table as he irons a garment. Beside him on the table, stands a pewter tankard and shears. A second tailor, also ironing, sits behind the first with a look of surprise cast in the direction of a woman who stands at the door holding a basket of ?cucumbers on her head. The woman resembles Rowlandson's etching of a 'Shrimp Girl' (RCIN 913702). In the foreground, a small boy warms irons by a fire as cat stands next to him, yawning."--Royal Collection Trust online catalogue
