Kay
This engraving is from A Series of Original Portraits and Caricature Etchings by John Kay. Published by Adam and Charles Black, Edinburgh, 1877.
Kay was a caricaturist, engraver and miniature painter and a contemporary of Rowlandson and Gillray – though far gentler in his wit. He produced scenes of Edinburgh characters and of comic events in contemporary Edinburgh society, which won a popular following. He depicted all the prominent figures and well-known personalities of the day.
