- Title from caption below image., John Phillips: Satirical printmaker, worked for many publishers from 1825. Dorothy George in the British Museum catalogue suggests that Phillips was the producer of the prints made in 1829-31 by 'A Sharpshooter' and published by S. Gans, mostly pirating William Heath; she also suggests that he was the "false Paul Pry" of 1829 who used Heath's signature of a tiny figure of John Liston. ... A trade card of 'Phillips' also at 16 Brownlow Street is presumably the same man or a member of his family (Heal,56.12)., Text below title: By-and-bye a man will go a hunting after breakfast upon his tay-kettle., and Not in the Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum. Division I, political and personal satires.

Peel: 'Come, John, you must take this anodyne pill,--it will compose you "The ulcerous parts are only peel & skin I whilst deep corruption's mining all within" Pope' [sic].

- Abstract:
- "A stout lady pours tea on to a plate, missing the cup, in her amused astonishment at the appearance of her very fat and jovial husband who sits opposite her, wearing a hat burlesquing the French fashion, coat open over a wide expanse of horizontally striped waistcoat, and plain white trousers. She exclaims: Lord, my dear! the French folks have quite transmogrify'd you. What, is that a French collar? why, it sticks out like two large horns; and they've stuck a sugar-loaf on your head--and what have they been doing with your small cloaths? and where's your wig, my dear? He answers: O! all a mode! all a mode! His daughter, who leans on the back of her mother's chair, says with a quizzical smile: All a mode! all a mode! Why, Papa, you seem to have forgot all your English. You'll have all the customers take you for a French Mounseer. Both ladies are dressed in the fashion, with huge gigot sleeves. The daughter's dress is patterned with huge checks. Behind the traveller are his caped greatcoat, portmanteau, and a clipped poodle, surprised and resentful. Cf. British Museum Satires No. 15464."--British Museum online catalogue
