Masculine Beauty[edit]

Original - "Now then, Mossoo, your Form is of the Manliest Beauty, and you are altogether a most attractive Object; but you've stood there long enough. So jump in and have done with it!" - Cartoon by noted comic artist George du Maurier for the illustrated weekly, Punch.
Reason
I believe this is the only good-quality scan of a cartoon from this notable British artist that we have.
