Billy Blubber or the flying buck going to the enchanted castle

Topham, Edward, after

Hand-coloured etching from a composite album of 97 folios (147 prints) of comic illustrations under the title Darly's Comic Prints of Characters, Caricatures, Macaronies &c., published by Mary and Matthew Darly in London in 1776, after a design by Edward Topham (1751-1820), signed by the etcher: 'Hurry'. Billy Blubber was used to describe a corpulent gentleman, and later became a derogatory term for King George IV. The enchanted castle probably refers to Windsor, situated about 19 miles from London.
