George Moutard Woodward (1760 – 1809) was an English caricaturist. Amateur caricaturist and humorous writer. Friend and drinking companion of Thomas Rowlandson. Nicknamed 'Mustard George', Woodward had a somewhat crude but energetic style. Widely published in the Caricature magazine and elsewhere, his drawings were nearly all etched by others, primarily Thomas Rowlandson, but also Charles Williams and Isaac Cruikshank. Described by Dorothy George as "An very considerable figure in caricature: he was original, prolific and varied'.
