Description | The English Take Their Pleasures Sadly by Gooderham |

Humorous illustration showing vast crowds of people 'enjoying' themselves at a typical British seaside town. The chaos and crush echo the well-known insult about the English by the French minister the Duc de Sully, 'The English Take Their Pleasures Sadly'.
