Abstract:
Charles James Fox, brandishing a whip, is depicted riding the old White Horse of Hanover into a ravine, with the words "Aut Cromwell aut nihil...", a saddle bag labelled "enjoyments" before him, and a basket behind, labelled "hopes and expectations" which contains George III's head on a pike, a crown pierced by a sword, and a torn Magna Carta. Refers to Fox's alleged sympathies with French and Spanish interests

"An enormously fat lady flings up arms, legs, and tea-cup in terror, as her flimsy gown catches fire from a red-hot poker falling from the grate (left). She, a stiff military officer, and a young woman sit at a round tea-table. The man sits paralysed, alarmed and helpless, spilling his tea; the girl has added to the calamity by knocking over the tea-table so that urn and tea-pot spill their scalding contents, and crockery slides towards the floor. A loutish footman enters (right) but has stopped dead, dropping a dish of muffins. A frightened cat scampers from the hearth-rug. Over the chimney-piece is a picture of Vesuvius in eruption. The woman is a monstrous creature with bare arms and elaborately dressed hair (or wig), a patterned carpet completes the design."--British Museum online catalogue
