Sugden the barber / R.S. ; Welch.
[London] : [G. Cowie],
wood engraving
3 3/8 x 2 1/2 in.
Peel 2151
Provenance:
Formerly owned by Sir Robert Peel.
Notes:
Probably detached from one of four issues of Whiggeries and waggeries, London : William Strange, 1834. This publication reprinted wood engravings by Robert Seymour, Robert Cruikshank, and others which had previously appeared-- often with different captions-- in Figaro in London, also published by Strange. The identical image appeared in Figaro in London, no. 33, 1832, with the same title.
Summary:
Sugden as a barber, holding a customer by the nose, flourishes a razor over his head.
