'A Rake's Progress'; scene I, 1734. Tom Rakewell is taking possession of his miserly father's effects. Kneeling beside him is a tailor measuring him up for a new set of clothes, whilst the rake tries to buy off Sarah Young, who stands by the door crying and holding a wedding ring, with her angry mother next to her. From William Hogarth, by Austin Dobson. [Hachette Et Cie, Paris, 1904]
