intended as a companion to the New Picture of London. Consisting of
fifty-four plates, neatly coloured._ Printed for Samuel Leigh, 18
Strand, London.
'_Advertisement._--The British public must be already acquainted with
numerous productions from the inimitable pencil of Mr. Rowlandson, who
has particularly distinguished himself in this department.
'There is so much truth and genuine feeling in his delineations of
human character, that no one can inspect the present collection without
admiring his masterly style of drawing and admitting his just claim to
originality.
'The great variety of countenance, expression and situation, evince
an active and lively feeling, which he has so happily infused into
the drawings, as to divest them of that broad caricature which is too
conspicuous in the works of those artists who have followed his manner.
Indeed, we may venture to assert that, since the time of Hogarth,
no artist has appeared in this country who could be considered his
superior, or even his equal.'
