- Abstract:
- The Coalition ministers are gathered around the table placed in the mouth of a cave. On the left sits Lord North wearing armor under his cloak, a goblet in his left hand. Opposite him on the right is Charles Fox, dressed as a centurion and sitting on a fox. He leans on the table keeping his right hand on three dice signed, "Madras," "Bombay," and "Bengal," and clutching a dice box in his left. Behind him Admiral Keppel, the date of the battle of Ushant (1778) on his helmet, raises his goblet in a toast. Behind him Sheridan, with ass's ears and "School for Scandal" written across his head cover, watches the Duke of Portland count out money to Lord Carlisle. On Portland's shoulder leans Lord Cavendish in a centurion's armor under his cloak. Between him and North sits Burke in a Jesuit's outfit reading his own "Plan of oeconomy [sic]." Under the table lie the corpses of Lords Shelburne and Ashburton, ousted by the Coalition

- Abstract:
- "Four men stand on the sea-shore, in back view but looking to the right: the King of Prussia stands between Holland (left) and Pitt (right); he holds Holland by the ear and kicks Pitt behind, saying, "This is the balance of Europe". Pitt, who is blindfolded, says, "yes I'll maintain it"; he holds out in each hand a naming fire-brand to two towns on the right, 'Cronstadt' and 'Rerel' [sic]. The whole district is in flames, and there are four other burning cities (one 'Riga'); the flames and smoke from all six merge and are inscribed 'Russia', 'Poland', 'Germany', 'Austria'. The sea which stretches between Pitt and the burning cities is the 'Baltic'. On it is a boat containing four men: the helmsman says, "I would rather be a Baltic trader"; the two oarsmen say, "Do not mind it, it will bring other wars" and "No prize money"; a man looking through a telescope says, "No Galeons - Storms, Sholas & Rocks." A man standing on the shore shouts to the boat "nothing good to be got by it." Frederick William, who wears crown, military uniform, and jack-boots, conceals behind him, half thrust into his coat-pocket, a paper: 'Danzic & Thorn'. Holland, a fat burgher, is smoking; he says "What a blessed Alliance". In his right hand is a paper: 'pyg--t O I hope all dis vill end in a Smoke.' The fourth man, who stands on the extreme left, is a British citizen who scowls as he reads a newspaper inscribed 'The Trade of the Baltic Lost - New Taxes Malt - Porter'. Across the sky stretches a large scroll inscribed 'The Cause of the War'; from it is suspended a tiny medallion: 'Ocsakow'."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "George III is seated (left) on a rectangular altar bending forward, his posteriors bare and irradiated like a sun. He wears a crown; he bends forward as if to caress three fanged serpents emerging from the altar, inscribed, 'The King of Prerogative'. A pair of hands emerges from clouds: one has taken the sceptre from the King's hand, the other is about to remove his crown. Pitt (right) kneels behind the altar, holding out a scroll, the 'Irish Propositions' ... Behind him is a bundle of papers held together by a scroll inscribed 'Provision for the Boghouse 1785'. They are: 'Petition to the [Pa]rliament'; 'Manchester Remonstr[ance]'; 'from Glasgow'; 'Rights of the People'; 'Westminst[er] Petition'; 'Popula[r] Resentment'. Behind the bundle is a pyramid inscribed 'Sacrifices to Liberty The Gracchi', 'De Witt', 'Gaveston', 'Mortimer'; a hand pointing from the apex to Pitt is labelled, 'The next to fall'. In the distance is a ruined temple: 'Temple of Freed[om] a British ruin'. On the side of the altar on which the King is seated is a medallion surmounted with crossed axes inscribed 'Prerogative of the People'. It encloses a severed head in a bowl inscribed 'Charles I'."--British Museum online catalogue

Charles Fox, who has already landed on the ground, grins announcing his intention of returning to power. Falling behind him, the frightened Lord North clutches the open "Budget" sack from which several documents fall out. Above him, Edmund Burke is about to lose his balance. The indifferent-looking George III busies himself blowing a large bubble, "Royal favour." The pedestals are inscribed, respectively, with the achievements of George II and the failures of George III

- Abstract:
- The image in the center of the plate shows a fox seated on a throne placed in an outdoor setting, with a city and a river in the background. Behind the fox, a lion holding a flag decorated with the fleur-de-lis, removes the crown from fox's head. In front of the throne lie a few dead sheep while another one is being devoured by a fox. The text added above the image explains that "The following exact copy of a print published in the year 1628 is offered for the amusement of the public with Sir Richard Hill's verses delivered in the House of Commons on Monday the 8th of March 1784, entitling them His Majesty's most gracious answer to the mover [i.e., Fox] of the late humble (...) address." and "A copy of the title-page by T. Cecill to Gomersall's 'The Tragedie of Ludovick Sforza Duke of Millan'. It decorates the centre of a plate engraved with words attacking Fox. A fox seated on a throne holding a sceptre, apparently unconscious of a lion (France) which stands behind him on its hind-legs and removes his crown. The lion (right) holds a fleur-de-lis flag. In the foreground a fox (Sforza) is worrying a sheep; behind is a group of dead sheep. The fox is seated on rising ground beside a river, on the farther shore of which is a closely built town. At the bottom of the design is engraved, 'London. Printed, for John Marriott. 1628. Tho: Cecill. sculp.' Above the design is engraved: 'The following exact Copy of a Print published in the Year 1628 is offered for the Amusement of the Public With Sir Richard Hill's Verses delivered in the House of Commons on Monday the 8th of March 1784, entitling them His Majesty's most gracious Answer to the Mover of the late humble, loyal, dutiful and respectful Address.' Hill's verses are engraved on the left side of the print, with annotations on the right; they are printed in 'Parl. Hist.' xxiv. 743-4. They profess to be George III's answer to the Address to the king to remove his Ministers, moved by Fox on 1 Mar., which the king answered on 4 Mar. Ibid., pp. 699 ff. and 717-18. Hill's line, "All hail to thee Great Carlo Khan!" is annotated: Alluding to the print of Mr Fox riding upon an Elephant in the character of Carlo Khan (see BMSat 6276). North answered Hill saying, "it was exactly that kind of idle nonsense about Carlo Khan, &c, that had misled the weak part of the country so strangely". Ibid., p. 744. Cf. BMSat 6449. In the centre, beneath the print of Sforza, is engraved: 'A Fox thus mounted on a Throne, Would give the People cause to moan, But Freemen will by Englands Laws, Support their King & Pitts great cause.'"--British Museum online catalogue

- Resource Type:

- Abstract:
- Manuscript on paper, in a single hand, of copies of 20 letters from Alured Clarke to Charlotte, Lady Sundon, followed by copies of 4 letters to her from Lord John Hervey and one letter from an unsigned hand. Many of the letters from Clarke concern his patronage of the poet Stephen Duck, in which he discusses his anxiety about exposing Duck to the cruelty of Alexander Pope and "the Dunciad Club," his negotiations with various booksellers and publishers on Duck's behalf, and his high hopes for Duck's poetry after the death of Duck's wife. He also describes books on religion, history, and moral philosophy that he has read; witnesses a presentation of "Indians" to the Queen; and imparts various religious and political news, including Quaker activities. The letters from Hervey consist primarily of descriptions of his own routine social activities as well as those of such notables as the King, Queen, and Duke of Grafton, though he also writes with surprise that Stanislaus has been chosen King of Poland and reports that Benjamin Hoadly, Bishop of Salisbury, is on the brink of being promoted to the bishopric of Winchester, despite his disagreements with Sir Robert Walpole. An unsigned letter dated 1734, sent "by a private hand," discusses the controversial nomination of Thomas Rundle to the see of Gloucester
- Description:
- Charlotte Clayton, Lady Sundon (c.1679-1742), courtier, married William Clayton (baptised. 1671, died 1752) of Sundon Hall in Bedfordshire before 1714. With the help of the Duchess of Marlborough, Charlotte Clayton was appointed a woman of the bedchamber to Caroline, princess of Wales in 1714. Her considerable influence over Caroline was distressing to Robert Walpole, who accused Clayton of procuring various political favors for her friends., Alured Clarke (1696-1742), was a Church of England clergyman. Ordained by his uncle Bishop Trimnell in 1720, in 1723 he became rector of Chilbolton in Hampshire and a prebendary of Winchester. He was a chaplain-in-ordinary to both George I and George II; in 1731, he became a prebendary of Westminster. Later he became deputy clerk of the closet to George II. Clarke was also a patron; he founded a county hospital at Winchester in 1736 and was a champion of the poet Stephen Duck., John Hervey, second Baron Hervey of Ickworth (1696-1743), was a courtier and writer. On 2 April 1725 he was elected MP for Bury St Edmunds, and entered the Commons as a supporter of Sir Robert Walpole. In 1730, he became vice-chamberlain to the king's household and, consequently, a member of the privy council; and, in 1740, lord privy seal. However, in 1742 Walpole resigned, and that same year Hervey also left public office. He wrote numerous tracts, including Ancient and Modern Liberty Stated and Compared (1734); The Conduct of the Opposition and the Tendency of Modern Patriotism (1734); and Miscellaneous Thoughts (1742). Hervey's Memoirs were published, with some material suppressed, in 1848, and a more complete version was published in 1931., In English., Pasted onto back pastedown: dealer's description of manuscript., Phillipps 18548., Binding: full calf.

The Duchess of Devonshire carries Fox on her shoulders; she looks round at the 'rabble' who follow her, headed by a little chimney-sweep, using his brush and shovel to beat a tune. She says, "When I take a thing in hand I always succeed". Her hair is decorated with a fox's brush. Fox in his orator's attitude, right fist clenched and held out, hat held out in his left hand, says, "I could never have got in without your Grace's assistance". Behind the chimneysweep is (?) Sam House in a shirt and breeches which are unfastened at the knee; he holds up on a pole a chemise or shift inscribed 'All sorts of Shifts made by C. J. Fox', saying, "This is the Devonshire method of introducing Members - Carlo for ever". Behind is a man with a lighted torch or link, saying, 'Sir Cecil has got the Devonshire Cholic'. A band of butchers play on marrow-bones and cleavers; one of them says, "She is a devilish fine Carcass - fine Meat!" On a pole is the cap of Liberty together with a fox's brush and a petticoat. In the background (right) the Speaker, in his chair behind the table with the mace, &c, and clerks are freely sketched: a sea of heads behind indicates the members."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- Manuscript journal of a London wine merchant's travels in France, Germany, Switzerland and the Low Countries during the summer and fall of 1835, accompanied as far as Switzerland by a boy, Alfonzo Pipon. The diary documents travel and hotel conditions; social events and contacts with British residents in various cities; business plans and trade fairs; and encounters with members of the British and Continental aristocracy, Although they witnessed part of the "Grand Review" by Louis Philippe on July 28, 1835, Collins and Pipon only heard reports of Fieschi's assassination attempt shortly after. The entries for the following week include descriptions of the mood of Paris, the lying in state of the assassination victims, and a brief interview between a deputation of British residents and the King, who spoke in English "expressing great affection for the English Nation.", Entries for the Swiss and German portion of the tour are illustrated with printed scenes and describe the natural beauties of the region in detail, comparing Berne to Somersetshire; a difficult and storm-plagued boat trip to see the Griesenbach Falls; the arrival of the Queen of Naples in Zurich; and an archery contest at the William Tell school, The journal concludes with lists of the letters of introduction carried by Collins; his addresses while traveling; and a chart of distances and conveyances for the entire journey, and Tipped in: folding lithograph with scenes concerning the Fileschi assassination attempt, printed August 12, 1835; 8 sepia aquatints of Swiss views; 2 prints of Lucerne; plan of Karlsruhe; small map of Low Countries

Many of the letters concern routine problems of military life and discipline; he requests wagons for camp necessaries, clothing, and supplies of ammunition; deplores the lack of horses and harness, notes that subalterns have no tents in which to sleep, discusses convalescent and discharge pay, and complains that he has no directions where to send sick soldiers, nor hospital wagons in which to transport them. He also reports numerous instances of delinquency in the military, including theft and robbery in the Guards; and, on June 19, 1761, writes to Granby for permission to court-martial a deserter as an example to the other soldiers, "as scarce a day passes without some desertion from us." He also discusses personnel issues, including an appointment to the Commissariat; engages in numerous disagreements with Lieutenant Colonel Beckwith over administrative matters, and acknowledges orders from Granby and Prince Ferdinand for marching and troop formation, as well as gives his opinions on how best to do so. In other military correspondence, he requests Lord Frederick Cavendish to look for proper ground for encamping twelve battalions at Bergen; asks Major Baczko to procure all possible intelligence of the motions of the enemy; and thanks Major General George Townshend for his report on the roads

- Abstract:
- Collection, in a single hand, of 61 letters from Henry Seymour-Conway to his brother, Lord Francis Seymour-Conway, in which he discusses military, political, and social news between 1744 and 1784. The collection contains discussion of his military service in the Netherlands in the 1740s, including a detailed description of battle against the French in a letter dated June 30, 1743; he also mentions his campaign in Germany during the Seven Years' War, including his altercation with Col. Beckwith, his irritation with a commission he has been given, and news of a peace treaty between Austria and Prussia. In 1744 he discusses the practicality of buying a regiment, asks his brother for help raising the money, and offers to sell his own South Sea stock. He writes several letters from Dublin Castle reporting on Irish politics, including some movements in the House of Lords regarding "papists." In England, he complains about prime minister George Grenville's uncivil and unjust treatment of him and defends his decision in the affair of the Britannic Legion and in the John Wilkes affair which led to his dismissal from court and military office in 1764. Conway also occasionally mentions American affairs, including one letter in 1766 which reports the repeal of the Stamp Act, and another in 1774 in which he expresses pleasure on hearing that violent measures in America had been rejected for the present. Numerous letters make reference to friends and family, including his wife Lady Ailesbury and Conway's close friend Horace Walpole, who offers financial assistance after Conway's dismissal; becomes ill in 1765; and visits Conway after Conway's retirement in 1784
- Description:
- Henry Seymour Conway (1719-1795) was an army general and politician. He fought in the War of the Austrian Succession; served in Ireland during the Jacobite Rebellion, and in Germany during the Seven Years' War. He was successively promoted to major general in 1756 and to lieutenant general in 1759. Sitting in the House of Commons from 1741 to 1774 and from 1775 to 1784, Conway became a leading member of the opposition, opposing the King's action against John Wilkes regarding general warrants in 1763. In 1765, he became secretary of state for the southern department in Lord Rockingham's ministry, where he promoted a policy of reconciliation towards the American colonies. He supported the repeal of the Stamp Act in 1766, and opposed the taxation policies of Chancellor of the Exchequer Charles Townshend. He criticized British prosecution of the war with the American colonies and played an important part in the House of Commons' resolution against continuing the war. In 1747, he married Caroline Bruce, countess of Ailesbury (1721-1803), and had one child, Anne Seymour Damer (1749-1828). His aunt Catherine was the wife of Sir Robert Walpole, and Conway maintained a lifelong friendship and correspondence with his cousin Horace Walpole., Francis Seymour-Conway, first marquess of Hertford (1718-1794) and older brother of Henry Seymour Conway, was a courtier and politician. He became a lord of the bedchamber in 1757 and was sworn to the privy council in 1763. He served as ambassador to France 1763-5, lord lieutenant of Ireland 1765-6, lord chamberlain 1766-1782 and again in 1783. He was also lord lieutenant of Warwickshire from 1757 until his death. From 1766-1782, he was a friend and confidant to George III. Hertford supported Lord North's administration and the war in America, in which three of his sons served, and voted against Shelburne's peace preliminaries in February 1783. He was also influential in Irish politics, owning extensive estates in County Antrim, and serving a term as lord lieutenant in 1765-6., In English., The manuscript is accompanied by typed transcription., Pasted into letter of Aug 22, 1744: printed and handwritten note about Cadivor ap Gwaethvord, Lord of Cardigan Iscoed., Laid in with letter of August 11, 1748: list of contents of manuscript., Laid in with letter of May 11, 1764: newspaper clipping from Gazetteer, dated May 9, 1764, concerning Conway's dismissal., Vol. 2 with original binding, now housed separately.

- Abstract:
- A racist and complex print purports to show a dinner held at the African Institution, becoming increasingly drunken and debauched as the evening progresses. Cruikshank employs many common 19th-century racist stereotypes of black people - drunkenness, aggressiveness, and sexual promiscuity - and lampoons the idea that black people could aspire to behave like white people. In the print, the white abolitionists are portrayed as unsuspecting and bewildered innocents who find themselves entirely out of their depth. Cruikshank seems to suggest that their association with black people has corrupted them - that they are being 'uncivilised' rather than black people becoming 'civilised'. Meanwhile, the idea of relationships between races is ridiculed. Many familiar and important figures are represented. Abolitionists like Wilberforce, Stephen and Macaulay appear next to the street entertainer Billy Waters and the radical Robert Wedderburn ... See a full description at Royal Museums Greenwich online catalogue and A design based on Gillray's 'The Union Club' with the roistering fraternizers being English and negroes, in place of English and Irish. The chairman's raised throne with its canopy is on the extreme left, at the head of the table which extends to the right across the design. The throne is an infant's chair, or commode, supported on a round tray based on two casks, one above the other. Wilberforce has risen from the chair, so far as the front bar will permit, his chairman's hammer held between flexed knees ..."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "The base of the design is a dunghill from which rises the head of Napoleon as a young republican officer, not caricatured. His head is covered by a large cup-shaped fungus, decorated with a tricolour cockade and resembling a Cap of Liberty; from its apex ascends a curving stalk, terminating in the large yellow rosette of a sunflower, centred by the head of Napoleon as Emperor, larger than that of the base, and representing an older man; like the lower one it is directed slightly to the right. Below it, leaves project from the stalk, balancing the design. On Napoleon's head is an arrangement of stamens in the form of an imperial crown. These unite to form the long scraggy neck of the third Napoleon, a head in profile to the right, emaciated and desperate. On this head is a larger fungus than that below, projecting like an enormous hat. From it ascend the stems of a bunch of violets, copied from No. 12511, but with the addition of more flowers, and on a larger scale. It contains the profiles of Napoleon, Marie Louise, and the King of Rome, arranged exactly as in British Museum Satires No. 12511. Smaller fungi sprout from the dunghill, some flat and some conical, like caps of Liberty; on the latter tricolour cockades are indicated. Four little figures are on a slope (left) leading towards the dunghill, prepared to clear it away. In front are Blücher and Wellington, running forward, and talking to each other; one holds a spade, the other a broad hoe. Behind them is the Tsar, shouldering a pickaxe. Behind again stands Louis XVIII, with splayed gouty legs, supported on a crutch. He waves his hat to cheer them on."--British Museum online catalogue

'To London'; another (right) points 'to Rochester' and 'To Aylesbury', these roads converging in an acute angle. In the centre foreground is a round well-head. A post-chaise on the extreme left gallops off to London; three passengers wearing election favours in their hats exclaim respectively: "Dead or alive we'll have him I'll Barber him"; "Provided nevertheless, if he does not we will have his son"; "I'll Butcher him if he wont come Dam him." A horseman, who has lost his stirrups, gallops after the coach, saying, "Dam Mr G-----s & Mr R------ns too I'll see if the Eloquence of a Bishop will not bring him." A man sprawling on the ground by the inn shouts towards the horseman, saying, "Stop him hes stole the Horse". A man lounges at the door of the inn holding the reins of several saddle-horses. The inn is inscribed 'Beef Steak House'; over the door is 'John Dickins'; an election flag inscribed 'Gregory' flies from a first-floor window. On the Rochester road in the foreground a post-chaise proceeds slowly with shuttered windows, but flying two flags. Words come from two invisible occupants: "Tho Smith's the best friend I have I'll oppose him Bob for fun's sake" and "This will Kill me Quite Matt". Two horsemen follow, saying, "I'll be ashamed to go into Town Tho its allmost Dark" and "I'll say I have been to Gravesend on business." In front of the chaise a horseman with a flag gallops, saying, "As I am the Manager I must haste to the Hall & nominate him tho' I know he wont come." In the distance two riders proceed on the Aylesbury road, saying, "I'll go this way that they may not laugh at me", and "friend so will I". A man lounging by the inn says "I should like to go to supper but I suppose they that go must pay". On each post-chaise is the letter 'A'."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- A satire ridiculing the first Nootka Convention in which Spain conceded England's right to maintain outposts in Nootka Sound and engage in whaling outside a "ten-league line" off the Northwest coast of North America. In a small row boat on the Pacific and facing the west coast of North American, Pitt stands fishing with a rod baited with a sack labelled "3 million genl. elc." Beside him in the boat is Henry Dundas holding another sack labelled "million gen. elec" and beside him in the back of the boat, a third sack also labelled "million gen elec." Selected points along the shore from the Sea of Kamtschatka and Bristol Bay (north) to New Mexico are identified with no attempt to convey a sense of scale: Nortons Sound, Alaska, Cooks River, Ps. William Sound, Spanish Land, Nootka or King Georges Sound, New Albion, California. Off the coast of Alaska are shown the islands Arako and Foxes Is. Whales surface above the water inside the buoys with flags reading "10 leagues." In the upper left is a galley "Convention." Pitt says "I fear Harry the fishing will never answer." Dundas replies, "Never mind tha Billy the gudgeons we have caught in England will pay for all."

- "Heading to a broadside printed in two columns. A sequel to No. 13764. George IV, a whiskered infant, lies feverish and fractious in a cot decorated with Chinese figures and hung with bells. He is surrounded by Ministers. Sidmouth, holding a doctor's gold-headed cane, feels his pulse, saying: "Dredful sympton's [sic] a raging Pulse." A bottle labelled 'Dolbys Carminative' (as in British Museum Satires No. 13764) projects from his pocket. Liverpool, with pap-boat and spoon, says: "I thought how it would be, that Foriegn Emetick has been too strong for his weak Nerves." Castlereagh, standing between two lawyers, puts a hand on the Babe's forehead, saying: "how hot his poor dear head feels." One lawyer (? Copley) tries to push back a leg within the cot, saying: "If he could but stand on his Legs once more we might have hopes, but I'm afraid he has Caught the Rickets--" The other (? Gifford): "A sae [sic] voyage by all means Brou--ms drops should have been taken with more caution as they are very Searching." An old woman (left) holds out a ribbon: "Here's the R--y--l Leading Strings," while an apothecary (right) using a large pestle and mortar says: "O! what a fogo what a mixture what a mess." Behind him are shelves ranged with druggist's jars. In the foreground toys are scattered, chiefly military, as in British Museum Satires No. 13764; they are: 'Royal Play things'. There is also a rocking-horse on which are two toy lancers. In front of the fire napkins are hanging, and on the mantelshelf are medicine-bottles and a doll. In the foreground is an overturned child's commode, the pan inscribed 'Royal Stole'. ...."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "The candidates for Middlesex and their supporters race (right to left) to Brentford. The foremost rider is Wilkes on a horse wearing a royal crown (indicating George III); he holds up the cap of 'Liberty' on its staff. Half a length behind, and nearer the spectator, is Mainwaring, holding up a sword whose blade is inscribed 'Justice'. His horse's human head is blindfolded, in its mouth is a pair of scales; in one balance is 'Byng Dunston', in the other and heavier, 'Wilkes Manwaring'. The horse probably represents Justice, its rider was a well-known Middlesex Justice and chairman of the Middlesex Sessions. Behind Wilkes, his horse's head hidden, is a rider not identified, he has lost his stirrups and clutches his saddle with both hands. Behind these three and in the centre of the design is George Byng, the friend of Fox and the Prince of Wales, M.P. for Middlesex since 1780. He rides a pair of horses (representing the Coalition), standing with one foot on the saddle of each; the near horse has the head of Fox, the other that of North; the tail of the near horse is a fox's brush inscribed 'Grace'. The fore legs of the pair touch a paper inscribed 'Test'. Byng's whip is inscribed 'Coalition' and he is saying, "Spur them up behind Doctor, or I shall lose the race", addressing Hall, the Westminster apothecary, who rides like a hobby horse a pair of crutches tied with a ribbon; in place of a hat he wears a mortar inscribed 'All [sic] Blue and Buff'; he holds up his pestle as if it were a whip. Behind Byng, Jeffery Dunstan rides an ass with long ears and the head of Sam House; he looks round to address the Duchess of Devonshire who is the last of the cavalcade. The Duchess (right) rides astride, her bunched-up skirt showing spurred half-boots. Her horse has the head of the Earl of Surrey; she says, "Byng for ever - and may the Hearty Cock ever stand stout in our sarvice". Dunstan says, "Well said my Dutchess - Charly's Whipper-in for ever. Huzza". The Duchess wears a heavily trimmed hat in which is a large election favour and four fox's tails, each inscribed 'Byng'. On the extreme left is a sign-post pointing 'To Brentford'."--British Museum online catalogue
