Published

wood engraving
76 x 100 mm

Notes
Probably detached from one of four issues of Whiggeries and waggeries, London : William Strange, 1834. This publication reprinted wood engravings by Robert Seymour, Robert Cruikshank, and others which had previously appeared-- often with different captions-- in Figaro in London, also published by Strange. The identical image appeared in Figaro in London, no. 65, 1833, with the same title.
Provenance

Formerly owned by Sir Robert Peel.
