"Five passengers sit together on a bench against the side of a ship, all but a small boy, seemingly a mulatto, manifesting misery or resignation. The others (left to right) are a woman shrouded in black except for her chin, a planter in a long coat and broad-brimmed hat, his wife's arm through his. A fat and hideous negress, awkwardly asleep. The deck is level."--British Museum online catalogue

Description:
Title from text below image., Date of publication supplied by cataloger., Reproduction of an etching by George Cruikshank, after a drawing by Frederick Marryat; Cruikshank's "etched by G.C." signature and Marryat's artist's device (an anchor tilted diagonally) are reproduced and legible beneath the design, as is the original imprint "London, Pubd. June 5th, 1824, by G. Humphrey, 24 St. James's Street.", Orignal etching was presumably an early state of a plate more widely published with the title "To Calais." For the state following the title change, which has the same G. Humphrey imprint and lists the same publication date, see no. 14719 in the Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum, v. 10. The plate retained this latter title when it was reissued in: Cruikshankiana.
