"Corporal Cartouche Teaching Miss Camp-love Her Manual Exercise, The Straight-backed Corporal Touches The Chin Of His Pretty Young Recruit As She Stands To Attention In A Domestic Interior, A Monkey Holds A Flute To The Left, And A Cheeky Drummer Boy Watches" is an 18th-century satirical print by the English artist John Collet. The work humorously depicts a scene in which a corporal, referred to as Corporal Cartouche, is ostensibly instructing a young woman, Miss Camp-love, in military drill, but the interaction is charged with innuendo. The corporal is shown touching the chin of the young recruit, who stands at attention in a domestic setting, suggesting a private lesson that goes beyond the military context.

To the left of the composition, a monkey holding a flute adds to the playful and mischievous atmosphere of the scene, while a drummer boy, described as cheeky, observes the interaction with amusement. The presence of these characters contributes to the overall sense of lightheartedness and social commentary that is characteristic of Collet's work.

John Collet was known for his genre paintings and prints that often contained elements of satire and social commentary, reflecting the mores and follies of 18th-century English society. His works were popular in his time for their wit and keen observation of contemporary life.

This particular print is indicative of Collet's style, which combined detailed domestic scenes with humorous and sometimes risqué subject matter. The artwork serves as a window into the social dynamics and gender roles of the period, as well as the public's appetite for humorous depictions of everyday life. As with many of Collet's prints, this piece would have been accessible to a wide audience and likely displayed in public spaces such as taverns and coffeehouses, contributing to the era's vibrant print culture.

The title of the work itself is a playful and lengthy description that was typical of the period, providing viewers with a narrative framework to guide their interpretation of the scene. The print remains a valuable example of Georgian-era satirical art and offers insight into the period's visual and cultural history.
