Dying for love, or, Captain Careless shot flying by a girl of fifteen who unexpectedly popped her head out of a casement [graphic]Rowlandson, Thomas, 1756-1827, printmaker[1819]eng"A young officer in smart regimentals clasps the hand of a pretty girl who leans from the window of a rustic cottage; he points as if to make an assignation. On the wall is a placard: 'The Wolf and the Kidd'. An old man (right) trudges off to the right carrying a bundle. By the cottage is a pump at which are two old women, while a third looks from her cottage door on the extreme left; all register eager spite. A young woman walks off carrying a pitcher on her head. A dog barks."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier stateTitle etched below image.Reissue of a print originally published in 1810.
