Beg, Sir! - painted by Cobbett, from the Exhibition of the Society of British Artists, 1857. Engraving of '...Mr. Cobbett's extremely charming picture, "Beg, Sir!". This is precisely one of those pictures the subjects of which genius alone can redeem from being silly and commonplace, but also exactly the kind of work in which that genius can most distinctly assert itself. We will not obtrude any remarks on the perfect naturalness of a picture which our Engraving alone renders quite unnecessary'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
