Pall Mall. (BM 1880,1113.2153) - Drawing. Public domain image.
Summary
See BMSat 10815. The dignified houses of Pall Mall, receding in perspective from r. to left., form a background to a crowd of carriages and pedestrians all fashionably dressed except for a woman carrying a basket. Below:
'O bear me to the Paths of fair Pall Mall
Safe are thy Pavements, grateful is thy Smell.
"At distance, rolls along the gilded Coach,
Nor sturdy Carmen on thy Walks encroach.'
[Gay, 'Trivia', ii. 257-60.] 1807; volume published 1808
