Thomas Rowlandson, The Hairy Prospect, or the Devil in a Fright (c.1800)

This week I looked at a lot of exposed vagina in the work of Thomas Rowlandson (1756-1827). My favorite anecdote regarding the spontaneous vag-flash, is this, from the Irish Times (1977):

In a townland near where I lived, a deadly feud had continued for generations between the families of two small farmers.  One day, before the First World War, when the men of one of the families, armed with pitchforks and heavy blackthorn sticks, attacked the home of their enemy, the woman of the house came to the door of her cottage, and in full sight of all (including my father and myself, who happened to be passing by) lifted her skirt and underclothes high above her head, displaying her naked genitals.  The enemy of her and her family fled in terror.
