'Female School of Art', 1874. An elegant young man with time on his hands poses for a roomful of young women in a straight reversal of the usual roles. Punch regularly poked fun at women, particularly at their fashions, their pastimes and their education. In this cartoon, as is usual, the women are depicted as terribly serious about their work. From Punch, or the London Charivari, May 30, 1874.
