Battleorum Billingsgatina ; Trafficorum. [graphic]Rowlandson, Thomas, 1756-1827, printmaker[15 August 1800]eng"BATTLEORUM: The head of an officer scowling angrily; he wears cocked hat and gorget. From his shoulders are suspended chain-shot, pistols, and bandolier. Below are kettle-drum, cartouche-box, musket, sword, and bayonet. BILLINGSGATINA: A buxom and comely fish-wife shouting her wares. A chain of eels, lobster, crab reaches a basket in which are oysters and large fish. The above two heads were closely copied, c. 1815, as a French caricature (title 'Caricature Angloise. N° 5') of Napoleon: 'Mons. va de bon-Cœur Caporale', and 'Mme Esturgion.' TRAFFICORUM: The head of a bearded Jew, wearing a hat, calling his wares with a cunning side-glance. These are draped from his shoulders and rest upon an open pedlar's box filled with scissors, spectacles, razors, spoons, purses, knives, rosaries, seals, a watch."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Printmaker from Grego.Plate numbered 'No. 5' in upper right corner.Temporary local subject terms: Military officers -- Trades: fish-wives -- Pedlars -- Weapons -- Pistol -- Bandolier -- Musket -- Cartouche-box -- Sword -- Bayonet -- Food -- Eels -- Lobster -- Oysters -- Fish -- Crabs -- Jews -- Pedlars' wares -- Pedlars' boxes.
