Title: [Glumdalclitch cries when Gulliver leaves with a page on Brobdingnag]
Period: 1800-1850;
Description: Gulliver and Glumdalclitch travel with the King and Queen of Brobdingnag, during which time both Gulliver and Glumdalclitch became ill. Gulliver had a cold, however Glumdalclitch was so sick she could not leave her chambers. They stopped close to the water, and Gulliver asked to be taken to the ocean. Glumdalclitch reluctantly agrees, but cries when Gulliver prepares to leave, seen here. Gulliver is standing on the table, outside his travelling house, which had two straps on the back, seen in the image. The page who took Gulliver to the water stands behind Glumdalclitch. The same image appears in the 1843 Krabbe edition.
