All the men wear conical caps with ear-pieces, some arranged to resemble a fool&#039;s cap. The three ladies in the foreground are young and comely; of those in the background, one is enormously fat, others thin and witch-like. On the wall are two dilapidated prints: &#039;Hannibal&#039; and &#039;Charles XII&#039; (the head torn off), commanders noted for their disregard of severe weather. Beneath the title: &#039;To the benevolent Ladies of Great Britain, who have so liberally supported the new system of Military Cloathing, this Print is dedicated -&#039; 18 November 1793<br /> Hand-coloured etching<br /> ==Condition of Print==<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==Book Details==<br /> *Category: [[Book Category::Antique Books]]<br /> *Purchased: [[Purchased Date::2024]]<br /> *Price Paid: [[Price::$150.00]]<br /> *First Edition?: [[First Edition::Yes]]<br /> *Condition?: [[Condition:: Very Good]] <br /> *Comments: [[Comments::UK first edition]]<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> *http://exhibits.hsl.virginia.edu/caricatures/en8-artists/<br /> *http://brbl-dl.library.yale.edu/vufind/Record/3964075<br /> *http://www.npg.org.uk/collections/search/portrait/mw63579/Morning-promenade-upon-the-cliff-Brighton<br /> *https://www.james-gillray.org/pop/esplanade.html<br /> <br /> [[Category:Book Collecting]]</div>
