A Grinning Match February 1, 1803 Thomas Rowlandson Grego describes a 1799 version of this image as designed by Bunbury, and characterizes the scene as "a party of rustics, whose rude features are more rudely burlesqued, are grouped around a barrel to assist in an exhibition of "face-making." The challenge runs thus: "A gold Ring to be Grinned for the frightfu'lest Grinner to be the winner." Mounted on a tub is one of the champions, round his head is the traditional setting for a horse collar, and he is succeeding in making the most fearful grimaces, to the consequent delight of the spectators.". A Grinning Match. After Henry William Bunbury (British, Mildenhall, Suffolk 1750-1811 Keswick, Cumberland). February 1, 1803. Hand-colored etching. Rudolph Ackermann, London (active 1794-1829).
