- Abstract
-
"Horne Tooke stands directed to the left, behind a table covered with a green cloth. His arm-chair is behind him (right). His right hand is on a hand-bill, his left is outstretched admonishingly. He looks with a severe frown in the direction to which he points. Behind his chair against the wall is a table of the 'Droit de l'Homme'; beside it hangs a tricolour flag. He wears (correctly) a plain black suit over which is a tricolour scarf. On the table is his round hat with small tricolour scarf and tricolour feather. On the sides of the table are partly visible the fasces which were an emblem of the Republic. Behind is a wall with Ionic pilasters."--British Museum online catalogue
