[Mrs. Anna Davis] [graphic].[7 July 1791]eng"Heading to a set of verses printed in two columns, and purporting to be a song made formerly by the boys of Westminster School on an application from 'Mrs Anna Davis' to Dr. Smith (see BMSat 4921, &c.) 'to whip Master Lloyd and some other boys who kept bantam fowls in a yard adjoining her house and disturbed her much . . .'. An ugly old maid in a half-tester bed sits up and frowns angrily at a grinning schoolboy (left) who stands just within the open door holding a cock. On a chair by her bed is a lighted candle, 'Ovid's Art of Love', and a pair of spectacles. Her stays and shoes lie on the floor. The verses are directed 'to Mr Holland' by 'Pedagogue' on the occasion of Mrs. Davis's death: they relate that Mrs. Anna Davis, an elderly prude, had amorous desires towards 'charming Jacky Lloyd'."--British Museum online catalogueTitle from British Museum online catalogue.Illustration to verse To Mr. Holland, printed below the plate and purporting to be a song written by the boys of Westminster school upon the death of Anna Davis.Publisher's advertisement at bottom of sheet: In Holland's exhibition rooms may be seen the largest collection of caricatures in Europe, admittance one shilling.Temporary local subject terms: Interiors: bedroom -- Furniture: beds -- Chairs -- Lighting: candlesticks -- Furnishings: chamber pots -- Women: old maids -- Schoolboys -- Birds: cockrels -- Spectacles -- Images amplifying subject: Ovid's Art of Love -- Female costume: stays.
