"Ah! Sure such a pair was never seen so justly form'd to meet by nature" Old Sherry : dedicated to Old Bags / [graphic]Cruikshank, George, 1792-1878, printmakerJune 23, 1820.eng"From two huge green bags, pear-shaped and broad-based, emerge respectively the heads of the King and Queen. They stand on the surface of a table forming the base of the design. The King's bag (left) is the larger; with averted head he looks sideways at his wife with an expression of terrified fury. She looks towards him with demure provocation. He wears a crown, she a triple ostrich plume in her hat to show that she is denied her status. Round the vast girth of the King's bag is a buckled garter; round the Queen's a blue (Garter) ribbon (cf. British Museum Satires No. 13802) inscribed '. . . Droit. Honi . Soit. Qui . Mal. y . Pense.' By the former bag is a paper: 'Ordered to lie [scored through] lay on the table'; by the latter: 'Secret Committe [sic]--'."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Mounted on page 51 of: George Humphrey shop album.1 print : etching on wove paper, hand-colored ; plate mark 25.5 x 38.9 cm, on sheet 28 x 40.9 cm.With identifications of "George IV" and "Q.
