About this work

A hand-colored caricature titled Suitable Restrictions, attributed to Thomas Rowlandson and dated 1789. A stout figure in a large feathered hat and white gown is led on a yellow cord by a man in a red coat, while several men in blue coats crawl on the ground toward a small crown placed on the floor beside a wooden stool. Speech bubbles carry lines such as 'Hold, not so fast George' and 'My game for a Crown.'
