A well-fed citizen going to his country seat at horn-sey (BM 1927,1126.1.21.52)
Summary
Similar in manner to BMSat 5173 and probably also a re-issue of a print published by Darly. An obese citizen sits in a small heavily-built phaeton, drawn (left to right.) by a clumsy pony ridden by an elderly postilion with a wooden leg, ambling slowly along. He takes his pipe from his mouth to say "Don't hurry me John". Behind the carriage stands a footman in macaroni dress; his master is dressed in a more old-fashioned manner. c. 1773
