Description: | Brook's Club in London was known for its gambling. However, it banned betting during dinner, which is why the gentlemen around the circular gaming table are waiting so impatiently. This is one of the fine, small caricature groups of London life for which Thomas Rowlandson was known. It is drawn in ink with a pen, using his characteristic short, curved strokes. Thin washes of colour, enlivened with areas of red, have been used to fill in the drawing. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East art movement artists animals watercolours art buildings men people natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
