The title page features exquisite calligraphy and vignette drawn by the talented Tim Bobbin (John Collier), showcasing his satirical style that was popular during this era. Engraved by Thomas Sanders, this piece is from the book "Human Passions Delineated" published in Manchester in 1773. The intricate details of this artwork reveal the complexities of human emotions and interactions. The expressions on the faces of the characters convey disgust, sadness, and perhaps even betrayal. The use of caricature adds an element of humor to the scene, highlighting societal vices and shortcomings. Overall, this print is not just a visual masterpiece but also a reflection of the moral values and social dynamics prevalent in 18th century Britain.
