"Three vignetted designs, one above the other. [1] 'Dosing'. A couple in a sparsely furnished room sleep back to back in upright chairs, the woman with a fixed frown, and folded arms, her feet on the fender (right); the man snoring with head thrown back, one leg on a chair. An infant sleeps in a cradle (left), napkins dry before the fire. Empty plates, &c. cover the table. A cat (right) and dog (left) sleep beside their respective patrons. [2] 'Draming'. In a ramshackle garret a cobbler and his wife tipsily drink gin; he attempts to fill a glass, she holds out hers. A screaming and neglected infant lies on her lap; a bare-footed child stands by a table. All are ragged and ill-shod. The tools of the man's trade are in the room, bare except for table, empty tankard, and a bed turned up against the wall and covered with patchwork. [3] 'Drowning'. A man struggles in the water, screaming and desperately raising arms and legs towards a watchman, who leans over a rail bordering a canal or riverside terrace of houses, shouting unhelpfully, springing his rattle, and holding up his lantern. Other watchmen run up."--British Museum online catalogue

One of a series of British social caricatures lampooning the pretensions of early 19th-century middle-class Philadelphians, mainly the city's growing community of free African Americans. Influenced by an increasing fascination with American culture and a growing racism stemming from the abolition of slavery in England, the African American characters are depicted with grotesque features and manners, wearing outlandish clothes, and speaking in patois and malapropisms to be portrayed as ineptly attempting to mimic white high society. In this print the artist mocks African American vanity and the desire to look white: a well-dressed African American woman purchasing shoes at "Sambo Paley Boots & Shoe Manufacturer." The belle, portrayed with mannish features, wears a yellow bonnet with a white veil that frames her face like long straight hair. Seated, she slightly lifts her red dress to inspect the black shoe that the African American sales clerk has just placed on her large foot. She believes the shoe "is sich a bery dirty color" and does he not have any white or pink ones. The kneeling sales clerk attempts to persuade her that it may not be "handsome" to look at, but surely a "good color to wear." Another clerk with a row of boots behind him is seen in the background performing as a store sign states, the "Best Jet Blacking Sold Here." On the left, an African American couple is seen walking passed the store

Abstract:
A cat is hanging from a tree outside St Luke's Hospital for Lunatics in Old Street, London, condemned by a man dressed as a Quaker, with a tartan cloak. The on-lookers call him a 'Merry Andrew' (i.e. a person who amuses others by ridiculous behavior), believing him to be a resident of the building behind (renamed St Andrew's). The Quaker has a number of petitions and bills under his arm. Between 1830 and 1847 the M.P. for Wigtownshire, Sir Andrew Agnew, introduced four bills to the House of Commons attempting to enforce the better Observance of the Sabbath. On his third attempt Charles Dickens wrote 'Sunday Under Three Heads' (1836), a personal attack on Agnew, whom he described as a fanatic, motivated by resentment of the idea that those poorer than himself might have any pleasure in life. Agnew left Parliament in 1837, ending the campaign
