This cartoon was engraved after Florence Claxton for the magazine London Society (1867). Prints are a mirror image of the woodblock, and when she was drawing this on the block, Claxton clearly forgot that the time on the clock needed to be reversed. The whole visual narrative is structured around time, so a new insert of the watch had to be made, showing it correctly.
