A History of Caricature and Grotesque in Literature and Art

Illustrations have been placed approximately where they appeared in the original. Two illustrations, on pp. 199 and 204, were labelled No. 127. To resolve this, the second of them, and references to it, was changed to No. 127a.

Footnotes have been gathered at the end of the text, and linked to their anchors for convenient reference.

Incidental punctuation, especially of abbreviated words and in captions, which is missing from the printed original have been silently restored.

Please consult the notes at the end of this text for details regarding the resolution of any other textual issues.
