This is a vintage print depicting a full-body portrait of a stout man dressed as a woman, specifically as the character 'Dollabella'. He is standing on a stage, striking a dramatic pose with one arm raised and the other holding a fan. The man is wearing a white dress adorned with small yellow dots. The dress has a low neckline and is accented with a red sash and trim. He is also wearing a large, elaborate hat decorated with a profusion of colorful feathers, including yellow, green, and blue. A red shawl or wrap is draped over his shoulders. The style of the print is reminiscent of early 19th-century caricature, with bold lines and exaggerated features. The background is a simple, neutral tone. Below the image, there is text that reads 'Mr. Liston as Dollabella' and a quote 'I'll spit, I'll squall, And tear the eyes out of you all.' followed by 'Tom Thumb'. There is also a note at the bottom stating 'Drawn & Published expressly for the British Stage - June 1817'.
