"Italian Picture Dealers Humbugging Milorde Anglaise on the Grand Tour" is a satirical artwork by the British artist Thomas Rowlandson, created in the late 18th or early 19th century. This work is a representation of the Grand Tour, a traditional trip across Europe undertaken by mainly upper-class European young men of means. The Grand Tour was considered a rite of passage and an educational experience, where the travelers would encounter the art, culture, and classical traditions of places like Paris, Rome, and Venice.

Rowlandson, known for his caricatures and social satire, often depicted scenes that poked fun at the customs and behaviors of his contemporaries. In "Italian Picture Dealers Humbugging Milorde Anglaise on the Grand Tour," he humorously portrays the interaction between English noblemen, referred to as "Milorde Anglaise," and cunning Italian picture dealers. The dealers are shown attempting to deceive the Englishmen into purchasing what are implied to be overpriced or inauthentic artworks.

The artwork captures the essence of the Grand Tour experience, highlighting the naivety and gullibility of the English aristocrats abroad, as well as the opportunistic nature of the dealers looking to profit from these wealthy tourists. Rowlandson's work serves as a social commentary on the commercialization of art and the exploitation of cultural tourism during this period.

The piece is executed in Rowlandson's characteristic style, which is marked by lively and exaggerated figures, vibrant watercolors, and a keen eye for the absurd. His illustrations often contained a narrative element, inviting viewers to consider the story behind the image.
