George du Maurier Cartoons from Punch magazine

A Caution to Young Ladies. Specimens of the kind of man a fair maiden is apt to tiptilt her nose at when she's eighteen./Specimens of the kind of man she will perhaps be only too delighted to marry, when she's thirty. Between the two may be seen a likeness of the ideal of her dreams, who, young as he is, has already surpassed Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Tennyson, Lord Wolseley, Mr. Millais. Mr. Santley, Mr. Irving, Mr. Grace, Edward Hanlon, and everybody else in their respective achievements. His name is Talbot Cecil Stanley de Montmorency le Vavasseur - and we have never met him."
