Title: Caricature curiosity / Woodward, delt.
Summary: Caricature of a porcine clergyman and a skinny volunteer officer examining caricatures of themselves in what is probably William Holland's printing shop window. Parson Puzzletest is furious, but his companion, Capt. Ruiz, reacts with good humour.
Names: Woodward, G. M. (George Moutard), approximately 1760-1809, engraver
Created / Published: London : Pubd. by Wm. Holland, 1806.
Notes:
•Caption label from exhibit of digital copy in "Swann Gallery": London Print Shop. In the late eighteenth to early nineteenth centuries, print shops were distinctive features of London, offering caricatures for sale or evening rental, and providing free entertainment for passersby. In this example, George M. Woodward presents contrasting reactions from two men looking at caricatures of themselves in the window: Parson Puzzletext is angry, while Captain Ruiz advises calm because caricaturists "like to see people in a passion." Woodward focused mainly on middle- and lower-class subjects in the more than 500 popular prints he created.
