In 1809, George Murgatroyd Woodward made a print called *The Comforts of a Modern Gala*. It’s a scene of daily life, printed in London and kept at the Victoria and Albert Museum. The print pokes fun at how people dressed up for parties back then. Just one sheet, but it shows how styles changed fast. Check out more prints by Woodward, George Murgatroyd.
