Persian Customs! or Eunuchs performing the office of lady's maids! Dedicated to the Circassian Beauty, Isaac Cruikshank, circa April 1819
Hand-coloured satirical print. Museum's description: "the circassian reclines on a sofa at the foot of a large curtained bed. One burlesqued eunuch pulls off a stocking, another adjusts her head-draperies; beside the former 'precious stones' are spread on the ground. They make coarse remarks, written in reversed characters". Date: circa April 1819.
