Britannia between death and the doctor's "Death may decide when doctor's disagree" / [graphic]Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker, artist[20 May 1804]engA satire of Pitt's return to office in 1804. Pitt is shown in the chamber of Britannia. Britannia sits listlessly on a bed, holding a sword in one hand. Next to her, leaning against the bed, is her shield and olive branches. Pitt holds aloft a bottle labelled "Constitutional Restorative" as he kicks another man, a caricature of Addington, through the door. Addington is in the process of dropping a bottle labelled "Composing Draft". With his other foot, Pitt steps on the face of a flailing and prostrate Fox, who holds a bottle labelled "Rebublican Balsam" towards Britannia. From Fox's pocket dice and a dice container labelled "Whig Pills" have fallen. Emerging from behind the bed curtains, the figure of Death, a skeleton with the face and plumed bicorne of Napoleon, overturns a table and upsets bottles of medicine and points his sword toward the unsuspecting BritanniaTitle etched below image.1 print : etching on wove paper, hand-colored ; plate mark 25.5 x 37.5 cm, on sheet 28.9 x 41.5 cm.Mounted on leaf 73 of volume 5 of 12.
