(Samuel House) (BM 1851,0901.46)
Summary
A stout publican with a completely bald head stands outside his house, legs astride, a tankard with an open lid in the right hand, a long pipe in the other. He faces three-quarters to the right. On the tankard is a monogram, "S. H." Behind him is a large barrel, on which is scrawled "No Pope", a relic or reminder of the Gordon Riots. Two windows of the house are visible; in one (right) two men are sitting, one smoking a long pipe. From the other (left) a man leans to vomit. On a seat under the window (right) a man sits smoking a pipe and holding a tankard. A bird-cage hangs on the wall. 1 September 1780
