| Caption | Rigging out a smuggler. A party of sailors in a cabin are fitting out a handsome young creature to 'run the gauntlet' of the Custom-house officers, or rather to go on shore, with as full a cargo of excisable articles as they can secure round her person. Huge pockets of 'old Japan china, tea, gum,' &c. are disposed round her waist, together with a small keg of 'coniac,' and a flagon of otto of roses. Artist: Rowlandson, Thomas, 1756-1827. Date: September 25, 1810. Sourced from Digital Commonwealth website. |
