About this Item
Original hand-colored engraving. Engraved image has a plate line, but no watermark on the paper. Very good condition, part of imprint line at bottom trimmed. This is a caricature by James Gillray showing a woman panicking at the sight of French warships through her window. Four lines of verse at the bottom are the woman's lament at the absence of Admiral Nelson from the defense of the coast. Published by John Miller, Bridge Street, London & W. Blackwood, Edinburgh. This contemporary hand-coloured caricature, is from the collection of Gillray's works issued under the publisher's imprint John Miller, slightly smaller than the 1808 original, but the coloring is contemporary, not modern.
