Not on view
Three men ride off in different directions after coming through a gate with square brick pillars surmounted by stone vases. Behind the left rider walks a fat divine wearing an academic cap. Through the gateway we see a short fat man in a clerical wig standing on a mounting block as a groom approaches with his horse. The prints reduces an earlier etching by Rowlandson after Bunbury (59.533.1861).
