Scope and Contents

Aquatint (coloured impression). An altercation between a wherry that contains three males and a female and a rowing boat also containing three men and a woman. The occupants of the latter shout at the wherry passengers and the female passenger bares her buttocks to the people in the wherry, much to their horror. A more peaceful scene takes place in the background with a sailing boat and a windmill. Description from Royal Collection Trust.
