More
In 'Morning', a lady makes her way to church, shielding herself with her fan from the shocking view of two men pawing at the market girls. The scene is the west side of the piazza at Covent Garden, indicated by a part of the Palladian portico of Inigo Jones's Church of St Paul visible behind Tom King's Coffee House, a notorious venue celebrated in pamphlets of the time.
The print has a piece of tape on the back to repair a scratch. A small piece of paper is missing in the lower left and upper left corners. The edges have slight scratches. The image is not affected.
Plate size: 48x40,3 cm.
