No joke, folks—"Bell and the Dragon" is the actual title of this 1811 etching from @metdrawingsandprints, clearly taking a cue from last week's episode of @ゲーム・オブ・スローンズ. 🐉🔔🔥
You might also notice "Lancaster" in the background—in writing #GameofThrones, George R.R. Martin was heavily inspired by the 15th century War of the Roses between the Yorks (Starks) and the Lancasters (Lannisters). But this sketch isn't related to *that* rivalry—the drawing of this fire-breather is a satire on the controversy between Joseph Lancaster (1778–1838) and Dr. Bell (1753–1832) over educational methods during the 1810s.
