St James Street in an uproar, or the quack artist and his assailants
‘St James Street in an uproar, or the quack artist and his assailants’, 1819. Fashionable carriages stop outside a door in St James’s Street marked ‘Chalk Drawing’, through which a crowd of small figures enters. BR Haydon watches from across the road accompanied by a pupil, while a goose labelled WC hoots at him. W Carey objected to Haydon’s advertising methods for his drawing.
