- Abstract:
- "The words are framed by a curtain, held back at the sides by 'Mrs Clarke' (left) and 'Colonel Wardle' (right), who stand on low round pedestals, as if flanking a proscenium. Both point to the inscription. The curtain is centred above by a group composed of the Duke's cocked hat and sword, with mitre and crosier (see British Museum Satires No. 11227) on a scale larger than the two figures. On the ground, between the curtains, the space is filled by a large open book: 'Thou shalt not commit Adultery' and by papers inscribed 'Dearest Dear' and 'My Darling.', with inkpot and pen."--British Museum online catalogue.
