Abstract:: "George IV, dressed as a Turk, marches arrogantly past a row of ladies of his harem, holding a large goblet whose contents are spilling. He wears a jewelled turban with the high peak of a fool's cap, terminating in a bell. The end of his long furred robe is held by a thin man (left) wearing a turban decorated with antlers to indicate Lord Conyngham; the latter's arms and legs are bare, and he shambles along, carrying a decanter. The King says: "Variety is charming. Constancy is not for me, so Ladies pray take warning." The seven ladies, all fat and all in quasi-Turkish dress with turbans, watch him intently."--British Museum online catalogue and "Illustration to a verse satire on the life of George IV, in which the villain is Queen Charlotte. The design may derive from prints of the Prince and Lord Jersey in 1796, especially Gillray's 'Grand-Signior retiring' (British Museum Satires No. 8807). In British Museum Satires No. 8809 there is a picture of the Prince as a Turk among his harem. Among the seven here depicted, but scarcely characterized, are probably, besides Lady Conyngham and Lady Hertford, the Duchess of Richmond, and Mrs. Quentin. The print appears in British Museum Satires No. 14030; a similar print is in British Museum Satires No. 14049."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "A satire on Cambridge. The interior of a large room showing two sash windows, through one of which (left) is seen part of the south side of the Senate House, through the other, the tower of St. Mary's Church, both drawn with topographical accuracy. Between the two windows is a niche in which is a statue of Athene holding her shield; in her outstretched left hand is held out a laurel wreath towards some men beneath her who have entered from a door on the right. Her owl sits beside her on the stump of a tree. ... Immediately below Athene, and concealing the lower part of her draperies a man stands on a high rostrum covered with a cloth. He wears a furred academic gown and bands, and holds out a rolled document in his right hand. Immediately below the rostrum a man, not in academic dress, is seated at a table writing. He is in profile to the right looking towards four men who have entered from the right through an open door, apparently 'professors of Arts and Sciences', whose names he is recording. The foremost of these is a dancing-master who stands holding a bow in his right hand, a kit or small fiddle in his left. Next is a rough-looking elderly man wearing a round hat and long coat. The other two are middle-aged, one holding his hat and a cane and accompanied by a dog. On the left, and behind the chair of the man writing, are two other 'professors'; a fencing-master, wearing a fencing-jacket, stands in back view, turning his head in profile to the right, his left arm raised, holding his foil horizontally. Behind him stands a thin man wearing a hat, one hand in his waistcoat pocket, the other thrust in his waistcoat."--British Museum catalogue, description of a later state

Abstract:: "Seven Aldermen, with ass's ears, sit in conference (a meeting of the Court of Aldermen) in Guildhall wearing their furred gowns. The table is covered with a cloth on which are the City Arms and motto, 'Domine Direge [sic] Nos', but a turtle replaces the griffin as the sinister supporter. The arcaded wall, showing the lower part of the windows (with the City Arms), forms a background. The table is flanked by the statues of the giants, 'Gog' (left) and 'Magog' (right), on pedestals. The former, holding a staff with a spiked ball dangling from it, asks: "I say Brother what do you think of our City Asses." Magog, holding pike and shield: "Why I think Brother Gog they are a set of D--n'd Stupid Blockheads." Five Aldermen are on the farther side of the table. The other two sit facing each other at the opposite ends. In the centre sits Bridges; he says: "As late Mare I should be a Great Ass if I did not differ from those Radical Individuals who trust in their own confidence-- I say the Q--n must not go to St Pauls." On his right is Curtis, the largest and most prominent, who says with raised forefinger: "We shall have a speedy Revolution and soon [see British Museum Satires No. 11306], if she is allowed to come into the City-- I protest on my part against prayers of any description." The man at the head of the table says: "No Prayers by St Paul I say for one." The Alderman next him asks: "Where is our friend At--ns, he knows all about burning the Thames" [see British Museum Satires No. 13272]. The others (left to right) says: [1] "Let me see--Keep her out by all means." He stares through an eye-glass, shutting one eye. [2] "Oh dear we shall all be ruined if she comes." [3] "If the Q--n is prayed for we are all dished by Goles--I'll have the Caracatures taken out of the Windows." In the upper margin: 'List of the Wise Men--G. Br--s, Billy Blubber [Curtis], C. Fl--r.

Abstract:: "A fantastic and complicated design. Queen Caroline leans back in an arm-chair, pen in hand, staring as if at a vision, her black locks flying outwards and upwards. Above her head, as if sprung from it, is an owl with the cross of the Order of St. Caroline (see British Museum Satires No. 13810) in its beak, and on its head a fool's cap with bells. She wears a décolletée dress with voluminous gathered trousers, as in many prints; her right foot is placed regally on a footstool. Her right arm rests on a table and on the paper on which she writes: To the King. She listens to a serpent held up by Dr. Parr, brandyfaced and naked except for his wig, one of several figures pressing round her, partly obscured by shadow. Lieut. Hownam looks over her right shoulder, two other faces are partly hidden, one may be Flinn, the other resembles Burdett. The aquiline profile of Hobhouse is behind Parr. On the right stands a broom, supporting a wig and gown (Brougham); another wig and gown beside it must indicate Denman; both are in back view. On the left and in the foreground stands Wood, as a devil, hairy and naked except for a furred gown, symbol of the alderman. He turns towards her, holding a baton, topped by a little cap of Liberty, and strings attached to two tiny processions: a state-coach (the Queen's) drawn by four horses and a band of armoured men on horseback, with banners, one inscribed Brass [the braziers' procession, see British Museum Satires No. 14119]. They are surrounded by clouds of dust. Over his shoulder look Cobbett, wearing a red cap with tricolour cockade and brandishing a bone (Paine's, see British Museum Satires No. 13525). To left and right of these advisers are evil gangs (cf. British Museum Satires No. 14194): a procession (left) of men with tall staves or pikes topped by caps of Liberty, and with a tricolour banner inscribed No Church no King no Constitution Universal Suffrage & Annual Plunder for ever. They wave their hats and cheer; their leader wears an apron. Above them floats a figure of Justice holding scales and a crown. Behind on the right naked arms raise firebrands, fanatical faces loom from the shadow; one at least has the snaky locks of Discord. The ornate round table at which the Queen writes is piled with boxes; on the largest, inscribed Secrets of the Baron, stands a small lifelike image of Bergami dressed as a courier. Other objects are a wallet from which projects a paper: 50,000 Per Ann [see British Museum Satires No. 14145], a vase of flowers, a decanter labelled (punningly) Tent [see British Museum Satires No. 13818]. On the floor are two figurines, one in back view, the other of Mahomet dancing (see British Museum Satires No. 13929). At the Queen's feet are her much-feathered four-cornered cap, and papers, one headed My dear Ca . . . and signed BB [Bartolomeo Bergami], the other beginning My dear C and signed Mat. [Wood]. By the broom are bulky bundles of papers: Brooming Correspondence and Defence of Moth[er Red Cap, see British Museum Satires No. 13975]. The owl is the base of an irregular inverted cone, formed of cloud-borne objects from the Queen's head. These are: Cobbets Register, The Times (see British Museum Satires No. 13968), The Champion (see British Museum Satires No. 13677), realistically depicted; three conical caps of Liberty with tricolour cockades inscribed respectively Bat, Cat, Mat [for Bergami, the Queen, and Wood; the title of a print, see British Museum Satires No. 14206 [23]]; Letters to Watch Makers [of] Coventry C B, over which hangs a watch and chain. Two large sketch-books, open: [1] Journal of a Tour to Jerusalem [see British Museum Satires No. 13918, &c.] with a view of a large mosque inscribed Temple of Solomon C.B del. [2] [Mem]oranda of the [Vi]lla d Este, facing a view of a large lake-side villa (see British Museum Satires No. 13857); this partly covers a third sketch: [Bucki]ngham House [the Queen's House as in British Museum Satires No. 14175]. Three large bundles of letters: Letters to the Baron [Bergami]; Wooden Headed Addresses Below Par; Answers to Addresses above Par [i.e. composed by Parr, see British Museum Satires No. 13934]. In a picture of a royal coach drawn by six horses and with three footmen behind the tiny passenger seems to be the Queen. Next this along the upper edge of the cone are pieces of plate decorated with a crown: urn, salver, goblet, candlestick, spoons, &c, with a paper: Plate Subscription.."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "O'Connell (unrecognizable) marches jauntily to a door on the extreme right, over which is a board inscribed 'St Ste[phens] To Trespassers Men-Traps--Constantly Set--Beware'; he is followed by an Irish mob, yelling and flourishing shillelaghs. He wears barrister's wig and gown with a mitre-shaped cap decorated with a cross, shamrock, and bells (emblem of folly). Under his right arm is a large book inscribed '1 & 2'; his left hand rests on a stout stick. His gown is held up by a ragamuffin and the procession is headed by a bloated priest who holds up on a bludgeon a placard: 'Unconditional Emancipation O C For Ever'; this is surmounted with shamrock. The crowd are evidently from St. Giles and similar Irish slums in London; two carry hods, emblem of the Irish builder's labourer or hodman. On the extreme left in the foreground is an Irish basket-woman, holding her basket, smoking a short pipe; she shouts 'Stop wid ye now--are ye goin to lave the ladies behind--ye blackguards.' She is barefooted, very ragged, and wears a soldier's jacket (cf. British Museum Satires No. 15721). See British Museum Satires No. 15759, &c."--British Museum online catalogue
