This print by R H Laurie mixes humor with travel life in 1804 London. It shows “Country Acting _ or no Tricks upon Travellers,” published by Laurie & Whittle. The title pokes fun at country folks pretending to be worldly when travelers pass through. It’s part of a collection of prints at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Look up the movement Romanticism next.
