This pen and ink sketch by George Cruikshank, titled "Study for the The Dancing Lesson, part 2: The Minuet", is a preparatory drawing for a larger work. It depicts a group of figures engaged in a dance, likely a minuet, with a figure playing a violin. The loose and gestural style of the drawing hints at Cruikshank's prolific career as a caricaturist and illustrator known for his satirical and humorous works. The artwork, dated c. 1835, is a valuable glimpse into the creative process of a renowned artist.
