Midnight correspondence, or, Expanded sentiments of Liddy Cunning-game [graphic].[November 1820?]engLady Conyngham sits at a table in front of a fireplace, quill pen in hand, writing a letter by candlelight; her large figure is exaggerated and her legs are spread far apart, causing her nightgown to billow. A clock sits on the mantle in front of her. In the background on the right, a bed in which Lord Conyngham sleeps can be seen beyond a curtain; a cloud of dreams rises from his head, filled with a crown and the word "Sinecures." A cat sleeps on a stool beside the bedTitle etched below image.Date from manuscript annotation in lower right corner of sheet.Not in the Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum.Mounted to 58 x 39 cm.Mounted on leaf 24 in volume 2 of the W.E.
