She smiles, holding the rein in her mouth. Both look to the picture plane, the Queen pleased, Bergami complacent. He flourishes a heavy postilion's whip with a long curling lash. Behind are trees, Lake Como, and Villa d'Este, inscribed 'Licenced Temple of Fancy'. Figures posture on the roof, as if dancing, as in British Museum Satires No. 14189. In the middle distance a man brandishing a whip is carried on the shoulders of a woman."--British Museum online catalogue</dc:description><dc:description>Title etched below image.</dc:description><dc:description>Attributed to Theodore Lane in the British Museum catalogue.</dc:description><dc:description>Sheet trimmed within plate mark.</dc:description><dc:description>Text below title: Set a courier on goat-back and he'll ride to the Devil.</dc:description><dc:description>Mounted on page 7 of: George Humphrey shop album.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
