| 1859 Proofs for prints of George Cruikshank's Punch & Judy Series of 1827 This pair of images shows courtly dances including the dance with Pretty Polly as performed by Piccini. Images from the Victoria & Albert Museum. |
Another scene from a recent Punchinello show which replicates the 1827 drawings of Mr. Punch by George Cruikshank, here we see Mr. Punch courting Pretty Polly with a dance. I wish I knew who the professor was here. He’s used “The Beggar’s Opera” by John Gay as the dance music.
The video, again is by Chris van der Craats.
