Members of the Household, 1842. 5 x 8¾ inches. Lithographic print by W. Kohler for Doyle’s The Christening Procession of Prince Taffy. London: Fores [1842]. Another of Doyle’s comedic tableaux, this time representing figures such as the Secretary, the Purse Bearer and the Master of the Horse. Typically, Doyle focuses on their absurd, gurning expressions.
