A Bankrupt Cart, or The Road to Ruin in the East!
George Murgatroyd Woodward|Rudolph Ackermann, London|Thomas Rowlandson
November 5, 1799 · Etching · Drawings and Prints
A family drives in a rough two-wheeled cart drawn by a clumsy carthorse. The man drives, wearing a cocked hat and his wife wears large feathers in her small straw cap and holds up a fan. A boy and girl are squeezed in the back. A grinning footman rides behind them.
