About this work

A hand-coloured caricature print shows an elderly man with a bald head, round spectacles, a white beard and an open mouth, his features exaggerated. Below his chin hang a globe with a compass set into its front, a sextant and a telescope, while a cluster of bells and a small tube dangle from his ear. The work is titled Philosophorum, was produced by Thomas Rowlandson, and is dated 1800.
