A Merry Go Round

Hand-colored etched caricature, published March 1802; 'Bonaparte stands in profile on the extreme left, playing a fife and tabor to which the Powers of Europe dance, holding hands to form a circle. He says: "Ah Ca-ira - Ca-ira." They are (left to right): Prussia in cocked hat and military dress, saying, "It is something like a Prussian Reel"; Turkey wearing a jewelled turban; Spain wearing the usual cloak, slashed tunic, and feathered hat, and saying, "By St Diego this consular Music is very delightful." John Bull, the only full-face figure, is the most bulky and jovial; he says: "Ah, Ah - here's your Old friend Johnny Bull, as merry as the best of them, he never likes to be out of a snug party." Austria is in back view, wearing military coat and boots but no hat; he says: "It beats a German Waltz hollow"; Russia, in fur cap and fur-trimmed tunic, says: "It is enough to warm the heart of a Russian"; a fat Dutch burgher, wearing round hat and bulky breeches, says 'This is the way to be happy Mynheer jig it away." -- British Museum.

A march to the bank. Vide. The Strand, Fleet Street, Cheapside &c. morning & evening

Hand-colored engraved caricature (after Gillray), published Augt. 22d, 1787. 'Soldiers march impassively in double file through a crowded street, and over the prostrate bodies of those whom they have overthrown. Military arrogance and foppishness are personified by the officer, much caricatured, with a grotesquely elongated waist. He places one toe on the body of a fish-woman who lies on her back, her legs much exposed. His outstretched right leg is poised above a crouching woman who tries to protect her barrow of vegetables. Two men holding muskets precede the officer; one tramples on the face of an infant. The officer is followed by a man carrying a pike, behind whom march six soldiers in double file carrying muskets with fixed bayonets. All march ruthlessly, eyes front, regardless of the havoc they are causing. A porter lies on the ground clutching a broken wooden case faintly inscribed 'Mr . . . Silversmith'; from it pour plate and jewels. The porter's knee is badly damaged, and his knot has been knocked from his shoulders. A milliner or courtesan lies on her back clutching the hair of a barber who clasps her leg. On the extreme right a prostrate woman tries to protect her infant, and a newsboy with his horn and a sheaf of the 'Morning Herald' tries to escape from the trampling soldiers. Other victims between the soldiers and the wall are a woman with a crutch, a shoeblack, a man with a tray of rolls. A pair of beseeching hands and two female legs (right) waving in the air add to the turmoil, which is accentuated by the writhing forms of the fish which fall from the fishwoman's basket. The background is formed by the wall of a stone building with two elaborately barred niches, and by the window of a silversmith's shop (right). After the title is engraved 'Vide.

A man selling and making bows

One of a suite of 11 original unsigned watercolors, evidently by a native artist. Man seated on ground, making bows that he will sell. During the late 1700s, the British East India Company expanded its purview in South Asia, bringing its employees from England to establish new lives in India. As expats traveled throughout the region and encountered unfamiliar flora and fauna, stunning ancient monuments, and new peoples and customs, they strove to capture these sights to send or take home as souvenirs. Yet unlike modern tourists with camera phones, eighteenth- and nineteenth-century travelers hired Indian painters to fulfill the same aims. The works produced by these commercial artists often appear in a hybrid of European, Mughal, and regional styles, known collectively as “Company” paintings. While some artists adapted subjects originally made for local consumption as foreign demand rose, others maintained a set repertoire catered to travelers. Among the latter, the paintings preserve a cultural landscape of artisanal traditions and specialized crafts, like the production of bows and arrows, which continued well into the age of firearms.

A long pull a strong pull and a pull altogether

On the left of the sheet six national figures representing the allied nations pull on a bundle of ropes attached to Dutch men-of-war. Cheerfully and in harmony, these figures tug at the ropes that will eventually pull the ships into deeper, navigable water. On the right of the sheet, the distant ships swarm with tiny figures. Dutchmen, distinguishable by their frumpy clothing and large bottoms, scurry over the riggings. One group stands near the shore and, putting their backsides to the hulls of the ships, attempts to push the fleet. Napoleon and Joseph Bonaparte, also in the right distance run towards the departing ships and bemoan their loss. The sun, inscribed "Sunset of Tyranny" sets on the horizon. Just to its left, five large allied vessels guard the waters. On the left of the sheet six national figures representing the allied nations pull on a bundle of ropes attached to Dutch men-of-war.

This caricature celebrates the liberation of Holland in November of 1813. George notes that here the Allies are rightly credited with securing Dutch freedom from the French. Caption: Published by Thos Tegg 1813 Novr 25 No 111 Cheapside Dialogue: Napoleon: "Oh Brother Joe - I'm all Fire, My Passion eats me up Such unlooked for Storms of ills fall on me, It beats down all my cunning, I cannot bear it.

A little man with a great appetite sitting down to dinner

In this satire, Napoleon's conquests are represented as dishes laid out on a table for his consumption. Seated at a large round table, Napoleon ignores the bottles of "French Spirits" and "Bordeaux" as well as various plates labeled "Swiss Cheese," "TURKEY," "Dutch Herrings," "Austrian Sour Crout," "Naples Biscuit," "Polish Goose," "Regal Plumb Cake" and "Swedish Preserves." Instead, he hungrily eyes a large mound of "English Roast Beef" in a pool of gravy displayed on a platter on the sideboard. The roast and its gravy dressing resembles the cliffs of Dover that rise above the Channel. Like the shoreline of England, the roast is heavily guarded by war ships--comically, a small figure stands at the base of a flagpole planted firmly in the roast. Here, Napoleon's ambition is characterized as unbounded appetite. Despite the number of dishes that clutter his table, the plate in front of him remains empty while his knife and fork are poised to cut into the roast.

Engraved broadside table of armed forces, with headpiece caricature of political and military group, tailpiece caricature of old woman nurse with baby. 'A broadside satirising British subsidies of foreign forces, particularly extravagant rates of pay for Hanoverian troops. At the top is an etching showing George II as the horse of Hanover, neighing "Worms" as he rises from a state chair lettered, "H[a]n[ove]r". His hind legs, those of a harpy, trample on papers lettered "Trade" and "Liberty" while his tail is that of a reptile. His forelegs end in hands, one holding the king's mask and the other grasping a money bag labelled "1600000" from John Carteret who addresses the horse/king, "Here's Cole" (i.e., money). Carteret scatters coins behind him to a group of eager be-wigged men who remark, "Damn Eng[lan]d", "H[a]n[ove]r Boys", "Poor No-s" and "Yes, Yes, Yes". Behind them, to the left, three men in tricorn hats are singing "Te Deum" and "Old England". To the right, Lord Wilmington, First Lord of the Treasury, and Samuel Sandys, Cofferer to the Household, stand at a table on which is a money bag lettered "160000" and a paper lettered, "13000000". Below is "A List of Foreign Soldiers in Daily Pay for England" itemising Foot and Horse regiments and the pay of Hanoverian, Hessian and Danish officers, with an "Abstract" giving the total sum paid to Hanoverians as £1035.1s.111/2d., to Hessians £343.17s.57/8d., and Danes, £342.91/2d/ At the bottom of the sheet, a nurse, sitting on a three-legged chair, is cleaning the infant Britannia, saying, "Your Besh[i]t again wares ye Clouts"; a pot of "Bonporenicole" (poor food for British soldiers, see BM Satires 2584) stands on a stool to the left, while a boar's head and a sheep hang from the back of the nurse's chair'. -- British Museum copyright.
