'Saved!!!', another of Phiz's many commentaries on tourism. 6 x 10 inches. Lithographic reproduction of pen and ink sketches. Tourism was supposed to broaden the mind with new experiences, and Phiz travesties the sensation by focusing on the excitement of the spinster Miss Tabby, being carried by a couple of swells as she enjoys 'the most enjoyable ride [she] ever had in [her] life.'[Click on image to enlarge it.]
