Early nineteenth century lithographic print by James Gillray, on paper depicting a morning promenade upon the cliff, Brighton, England. Young women, gaily dressed, ride donkeys along a rough road at the edge of a cliff indicated by a railing and the sea below. There are three groups inscribed respectively 'Kicking-Sett,' 'Active-Sett,' and 'Passive Sett.' On the extreme left, one donkey lies on its back kicking the rider it has thrown. A few spectators are strung out along the railing. An old sailor sits on the railing, smoking, facing the sea. 24 January 1806
