"A Lawyer and His Agent" The rare Hand coloured Mezzotint engraving after Dighton Published by Bowles & Carver. 32.5 by 24.7 cms. Presented in its original frame. Circa.1780.

A satire on the law: a lawyer sits in his study chatting in a familiar way with the Devil who puts his arm around his shoulder; the table is covered with briefs concerning cases of debt and Chancery matters; on the wall behind is a picture of a shark.
