Napper Tandy taken from life in Newgate, Novemr. 2d, 1799 / [graphic]Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker[8 November 1799]eng"A bust portrait of Tandy (1740-1803) looking to the left. He wears the double-breasted, high-collared coat of a French officer, with epaulettes. He looks a sick man, his (white) hair is short and unkempt, his face deeply seamed; his drooping, bulbous nose and look of melancholy wariness give an impression of caricature, but the characterization appears to be excellent, cf. a portrait engraved by Heath after J. Petrie, published 1815."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Sheet trimmed mostly within plate mark.Temporary local subject terms: Military uniforms: French officers' uniform.
