Pillars of the Constitution [graphic]Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker[1 February 1809]eng"Sheridan (left) and the Duke of Norfolk, bloated and senile, stagger tipsily on the pavement of St. James's Street, walking from the door of 'Brooks's' (right) which they have just left. Lamps light the façade of the club, part of which is visible with three (lighted) windows on the first floor. Sheridan holds the Duke's right arm, and raises his right fist in a rhetorical gesture, saying, "And now, have at the Ministry, Damme!"; in his pocket are papers: 'Motions for to Badger Ministry'. The Duke says: "and Now for the Majesty of the People!" From his coat-pocket projects a bottle of 'Port'."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Text below title, in lower right: Three o'clock & a cloudy morning.Sheet trimmed within plate mark.1 print : etching with aquatint on wove paper, hand-colored ; plate mark 36.0 x 25.7 cm, on sheet 39.9 x 29.5 cm.Mounted on leaf 61 of volume 6 of 12.
