While browsing images in the British Museum, I came across this print. I don’t know how permanent it will be, but here is a link.
The caption reads “A party of people in a boat on wheels being pulled to right”. Museum number 1868,0328.173. Drawn by James Gillray, British, 1772-1794.
Why is a boat on a wagon being pulled thru a giant puddle?
(Mom’s query)
I think it is satirical. Though the boat has to come out of the water at some point; perhaps it is nearing shore.
