Abstract:
A re-working of Hogarth's self-portrait of 1749 (Paulson 181); the artist has been replaced by a bear representing Charles Churchill wearing preaching bands and holding a tankard of beer in one paw and a knotty club in the other; the knots in the club are labelled 'Lye 1, Lye 2, Lye 3 ... Fallacy, Lye 10 ... ". The oval canvas rests on two books, on top is 'Great George Street : a list of the subscribers to the North Britons' and below 'A new way to pay old debts, a comedy by Massenger.' The dog Trump is urinating on a copy of Churchill's "Epistle to Hogarth". Leaning on the palette is a framed satirical print showing Hogarth himself (in a white hat) whipping a dancing bear (Churchill) and a monkey (John Wilkes) in front of a projected tomb for William Pitt from which a cannon fires at the dove of peace."--British Museum onlne catalogue
