Thomas Rowlandson Bachelor's Fare or Bread, Cheese and Kisses
Picturing an amorous but not quite private moment, Thomas Rowlandson’s watercolour sketch takes its title from a phrase used by Anglo-Irish writer Jonathan Swift in 1738, “Bachelor’s fare: bread and cheese, and kisses”. It was a study for a popular print published in London in 1813.
