"High-Change in Bond Street, - ou - la Politesse du Grande Monde," published March 27, 1796 by Hannah Humphrey, numbered 417 in upper right corner. Late Georgian manners - or the lack thereof - are portrayed as a cluster of dandified swells force a mother and daughter off the sidewalk and onto slippery cobbles. The verso is impressed with another 1796 Gillray print (uncolored) "My Poll & My Partner Joe," numbered 420. Presented in a modern gilt wooden frame.
