About this work

A hand-coloured etching titled Betting, the sixth plate of a set of six racing scenes by Thomas Rowlandson, dated 1799. A crowd of men on horseback and on foot gathers around a signpost reading Betting Post, with raised arms, waved papers and shouting faces. A distant race unfolds on the hillside at the right.
