Matrimonial ladder : or Such things are
Matrimonial ladder: or Such things are is a hand-coloured satirical picture book on courtship and marriage, published in London in 1825 by Thomas McLean and credited to E. M., Esq. Its pictures show Regency-era couples in comic social scenes, drawn with lively caricature and bright flat colour that a designer could adapt for period-style satire, character vignettes, or stage-like tableaux.
