The Garreteer's Petition is an 1809 genre painting by the British artist J. M. W. Turner.
It was arguably part of a long-standing rivalry between Turner and the emerging painter David Wilkie, who had made his name as a genre painter. Turner had produced works that appeared to parody Wilkie's style. Turner gave up painting genre scenes after a few years, but other artists such as William Mulready built their careers on it.
It was shown at the Royal Academy's 1809 Summer Exhibition at Somerset House. Today it is in the collection of the Tate Britain in London, having been part of the Turner Bequest of 1856.
