DESCRIPTION
Two surprised-looking knights chopping off each others heads simultaneously, while their pages stand by holding on to wooden horses. One knight wears a coal scuttle, the other a saucepan. From 'Merry Conceits and Whimsical Rhymes', written and drawn by Charles H. Ross; engraved and printed by Edmund Evans; published by George Routledge & Sons, London & New York, 1883. Each somewhat anarchistic illustration comes with a humorous verse, often highly politically-incorrect by today's standards.
