[Visual Arts] Loutherbourg, P.I. de. . 1794 Print "An Exhibition.". Published 12th May 1794 by Laurie & Whittle, No. 53 Fleet Street, London. 22 x 23 cm., matted to 36 x 38 cm.
"Aquatint, in the manner of a water-colour drawing. The corner of a picture-gallery with a crowd of spectators peering at two pictures on the right. The most prominent are a short fat man, resembling caricatures of Captain Grose, and a dwarfish boy who stand in profile to the right. A man wearing a cocked hat, evidently standing on a bench, looks through a quizzing-glass at the upper picture. Two men in back view, one seated, one standing, look at pictures on the back wall, where a landscape is hung. The dress of both men and women is of an earlier date."
