John Bull & his Piece!, [1803 - 1804]

Scope and Contents

Artist: Charles Williams. Published: S. W. Fores. John Bull, a fat 'cit', chucks under the chin a fat trollope, his arm round her shoulder. She looks mixed race, grinning broadly; her dress is ragged and fantastically patched. John's hat, gloves, and cane are on a table. Above the design: "Come! Come! no Grinning!! a bad Piece, is better than no Piece at all." Description from the British Museum.
