Abstract:
"Fox runs hurriedly from the House of Commons through an arched doorway; he excretes as he runs, saying, "I never said he had a right to the Regency I didn't indeed! indeed I didn't!" In a porter's chair (right) sits an elderly man (Cornwall, the Speaker), his hands raised, saying with a shocked expression, "Lord! Lord! What will this House come to?" On the left stands Weltje, very stiff and tall, his hands raised, saying, "No right to de Regency? den by Got! we shall loose all de Sausages!" He wears a looped-up apron; sauce-ladles are thrust through his apron-string. Through the archway appear, obliquely, the Opposition benches; they are crowded with members (also excreting) whose faces and gestures express consternation. In front sit North, with his eyes bandaged, indicating his blindness, Sheridan, and Burke. Facing them, the profile of Pitt is seen through the doorway, saying, '"The Prince of Wales lias no more right to a "succession to the Regency, than any other Subject*, and whoever asserts the "contrary, speaks little less than Treason! - I repeat, than Treason!" * without the Consent of Parliament'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A group of cinder-sifters at work on one of the vast laystalls which disgraced the surroundings of London in the 18th century (notably off Tottenham Court Road). A woman of the lowest type, ragged, naked to the waist, holds her sieve, turning her head to her male counterpart, a burly dustman, who helps her by shovelling cinders into her sieve. They grin amorously at each other. She is hideous, stout, and muscular. Two other cinder-sifters kneel on the ground, both are aged crones; one bends over her sieve, the other drinks a glass of gin. In the foreground are the bones of a horse. Behind (left) is the dustman's cart. In the sky a flight of birds (left) are suggestive of carrion crows."--British Museum online catalogue
