Abstract

On the right, rising from the clouds are Charles Fox and Edmund Burke, both gesticulating violently in their attack on the "Preliminary Articles of Peace" (with the United States). Joining them is Lord North in the foreground, his left arm raised. He is interrupted in his speech by a barking dog appearing from under the scroll listing the articles. On the left in the background, Cornwall, the Speaker, overlooks the floor. A companion print to British Museum Satires No. 6187.
