"These colorful
prints depicting London street merchants were copied from the paintings of Francis Wheatly, R.A., and published by Colnaghi & Co. of Pall Mall in the 1790's. They're a far cry from Fortnum & Mason's staff -- but good and loyal subjects just the same. Some were highly educated -- graduates of Bridewell College, I'm told. Lovely to look at; these prints were still very popular in my time." |
