Home from school, or, The commencment [sic] of the holidays [graphic]Cruikshank, George, 1792-1878, printmaker[1 August 1835]eng"The mother sits beside an open work-table, receiving the children whom a black footman ushers in, looking round the door and grinning broadly. The eldest girl has rushed into her mother's arms; a little boy stands beside her, gleefully welcoming a younger girl who is running forward. The eldest boy, on whom his mother's eyes are fixed, advances nonchalantly, blowing a trumpet. A cockatoo screeches on its perch. There are two pictures: Harvest Home and Happy Return, a woman at her cottage door greeting a youth."--British Museum online catalogueTitle from caption below image.Number "3" in "1835" in imprint has been erased and replaced with number "2" written in ms.Reissue of no. 15188 in Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum.
