Lordly elevation [graphic]Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker[6 January 1802]eng"Lord Kirkcudbright stands at a dressing-table on an immense baron's coronet which serves as a foot-stool, regarding himself in a draped mirror. He wears a court suit and sword with an immense bag to his wig, which sticks out from his humped back. His left arm is akimbo, fingers outspread, right arm bent and holding a small tricorne in a swaggering pose that exaggerates his deformity, which is further accentuated by a shirt frill. His profile is almost concave; the mirror reflects a satisfied full face. On the table are toilet appliances and a large bottle labelled 'Velno', a quack venereal remedy, see BMSat 7592. He says: '"Methinks I'm now, a marv'lous proper Man, - "I'll have my Chambers lin'd with Looking Glass, "And entertain a score or two of Tailors, - "To study Fashions to adorn my body, - '."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Mounted on leaf 64 of volume 10 of 12.
