Description

Strange and intriguing lithographed personification print showing a woman turned into a structure made of china and crockery.

This lithograph was made by a series of prints made for the Purcell's Lithographic Drawing Book, which now appears to be known in no examples. 

The image was lithographed by George E. Madeley after a drawing by George Spratt. Spratt and Madeley made another collection of personification prints, entitled "Figures of Fun."

Condition Description
Original hand-color. Trimmed to image and pasted down, without text.

The Brewer's Horse

The Brewer's Horse, a mid-19th-century lithograph, captures the essence of a bygone era with a notably large horse, barrels of beer as a backdrop, and a joyous man with a whip standing afore a warehouse. This depiction, rendered with an unaffected charm, offers insight into the role of the brewing industry during this period and its reliance on horse-drawn transport.
