Title Page: Le Brun Travested, or Caricatures of the Passions
A brown-ink title page centers an oval cartouche of flowing script, with a laughing comic mask crowning the top and scrolled ornament framing the sides and base. The lettering names Le Brun Travested, or Caricatures of the Passions, designed by G. M. Woodward and etched by T. Rowlandson.
Look closer: A small printer's credit line runs along the bottom edge beneath the base ornament.
