All these prints seems to me so funny) I liked the most that one with lyre.
Fascinating to see so many "sharp" objects. Seems like the inspiration may have come from carpentry (Free Masons?). I think the "top" on the piece of wood is actually a plumb bob which is used in carpentry (and boatbuilding, which is why we have so many!) to draw a level line. Thank you so much for sharing all these wonderful prints.
The conversational are very interesting. I never ceases to amaze me how many patterns there are? They are just so cute and appealing! cheers!
