- Abstract:
- "A design in four compartments divided by lines intersecting at right angles. [1] 'Avarice'. The King and Queen, three-quarter length, sit facing each other across a round table, hugging large moneybags. Those of the King are inscribed '5 Millions', those of the Queen '3 Millions'; facing her is an open account book: 'Account of Money at interest in Germany' [cf. BMSat 7906]. See BMSat 7836, &c. [2] Next (right) is 'Drunkenness'. The Prince of Wales, drunk and incapable, is being taken home by two watchmen. Behind (left) is an open door in which stands a fat bawd watching her visitor depart. Above it are the Prince's feathers and motto, and 'Neat Wines'. The figures are three-quarter length. [3] Below (left) is 'Gambling'. A crowd of figures surround a circular gaming-table, half of which fills the foreground. The Duke of York raises a dice-box, next him is a military officer wearing a gorget. On the other side (left) sits a ruffianly-looking fellow wearing a slouch hat and coachman's coat. Behind is a man with a croupier's rake. (See BMSat 7301 (5), &c.) [4] Next (right) is 'Debauchery'. The Duke of Clarence and Mrs. Jordan sit together on a settee, embracing each other. He wears a naval officer's coat, with a star, and sailor's trousers. On the wall is the print of a chamber-pot inscribed 'A Jordan' (see BMSat 8057, &c). ..."--British Museum online catalogue.
