- Abstract
-
Probably an illustration to Sterne's Sentimental Journey. A corpulent gentleman with an equally rotund lady on his arm waits in a line of passengers to board a ship. An invalid is carried up the gangpank in a chair, while a servant carries a side of beef on a platter together with a basket of wine-bottles. Another gentleman descends from a coach. Masts of sailing vessels occupy the background
