- Abstract
-
"Two scenes printed on one sheet, the subjects relate to Bunbury's days as a student at Cambridge. "Pot Fair Cambridge": pots are laid out on tables for sale. A fat divine stumbles backward as dogs fight in the foreground. A seller at right is alarmed as he threatens to fall onto her table. "The College Gate": Three men ride off in different directions after coming through a gate with square brick pillars surmounted by stone vases. Behind the left rider walks a fat divine wearing an academic cap. Through the gateway we are shown a short fat man in a clerical wig standing on a mounting block as a groom approaches with his horse."--Metropolitan Museum of Art online catalog
