Fearful Ordeal for Jones Size:M: 50 x 40cm rebuilt in 1706'Fearful Ordeal for Jones', 1867. A young lady sings in a forceful manner at a sweating young man. The name of the song, 'Roberto, tu che adoro', causes the young man acute embarrassment. Many an evening of musical entertainment was enjoyed in the homes of both middle and upper classes. However, such evenings were never entirely free from potential peril, as demonstrated in this cartoon. From Punch, or the London Charivari, July 6, 1867.
