- Abstract:
- A copy of a print (British Museum satires no. 12392) published by Humphrey in 6 March 1814. The players are the same, but one (right) has become gouty and sits in a winged arm-chair. The spectators are altered, but are perhaps intended to be the same persons, transformed by dress and pose. One (right) is a dandy who leans against the chimney-piece warming his coat-tails, and watching with a contemptuous smile. There is a picture of skittle-players, as in no. 12392; in place of the horse (left) a left-handed cricketer is depicted
