Description: A colored copper engraving based on a painting by the English artist Francis Wheatley (1747–1801) from the "Cries of London" series, depicting a laundress carrying a laundry basket in a busy London street. The engraving was executed by Giovanni Vendramini (1769–1839). The print bears both English and French titles – "The Laundress / Blanchisseuse" – and comes from a series that captures London street vendors and artisans from the late 18th century. The paper is slightly yellowed, with minor foxing in places; the frame is original, veneered.
