"Oh! Listen to the voice of love"
Gillray, James, 1756-1815 · November 4, 1799
An ugly man (left) kneels (on a spotted handkerchief) at the feet of a plain old maid seated on an upright chair. He holds her left hand, his right is on his breast. She holds up her fan in a way more encouraging than coy. Both grin broadly. A patterned carpet and plain wall complete the design (BM).
