Blood on thunder fording the Red Sea [graphic].Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker[1 March 1788]eng"Thurlow, in his Chancellor's wig and gown, wades waist-deep in the sea, advancing towards the spectator. On his shoulders sits Hastings, in oriental dress, holding in each arm a large money-bag inscribed '£4.000.000'. Thurlow scowls; Hastings has a serene and contented expression. In the water (a sea of blood) are the mutilated corpses of Indians: three heads tied together by the hair float in the water; a man floats with a rope round his neck; there are also a scourge and birch-rod."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Attributed to Gillray in British Museum catalogue.1 print : etching on laid paper, hand-colored ; plate mark 24.5 x 34.9 cm, on sheet 26.2 x 36.8 cm.Mounted on leaf 27 of volume 2 of 12.
