John Bull in Paris between a Shower and a Stink is a satirical print created by the British caricaturist Richard Newton in 1796. The artwork humorously depicts the character John Bull, a national personification of England, navigating the streets of Paris. The title itself suggests a juxtaposition of experiences, likely commenting on the contrasting perceptions of Paris by the English during that period—ranging from the romantic allure of the city to the more unpleasant aspects of urban life at the time.

Richard Newton, known for his sharp and often controversial satirical style, uses this piece to critique and perhaps mock the cultural differences and tensions between England and France, which were particularly pronounced during the late 18th century amidst political upheavals and the French Revolution. The print features John Bull in a comedic and possibly bewildering situation, emphasizing the theme of an outsider's challenging encounter with French society and urban environment.

This work is representative of Newton's brief but impactful career in caricature, where he often addressed political and social themes through a distinctly British lens. His works are noted for their bold lines and clear, expressive figures, making them accessible and engaging to a wide audience. John Bull in Paris between a Shower and a Stink not only offers insights into Anglo-French relations but also serves as a significant example of late 18th-century British caricature.
