The Rev. Dr. Syntax Reading his Tour

Thomas Rowlandson

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white and color illustration of a group of people sitting around indoors. The setting appears to be a kitchen. A man on the left side sits on a chair. A second man sits on the left on a low wooden bench with a baby on his lap. The central figure sits on a wooden bench and points with one hand while holding a piece of paper in the other. The central figure has white hair. He wears brown clothing. To his right sit two men. The man on the far right side sits on a chair at a table, wearing a green cloth around his waist. The man on the far right holds a horn. A woman on the right side stands with one arm on her head. The woman wears a white apron over a pink top. A dog lies on the floor. The background shows a fireplace on the left and shelves on the right. The scene appears chaotic. The style of drawing and composition are reminiscent of the early 19th century.
