[Lord Sackville attacking the Irish Propositions] [graphic]

"Lord Sackville advances in profile to the left, declaiming, left knee raised as if climbing a citadel, left hand on his breast, holding up in his right hand a cylindrical roll resembling a document, but inscribed 'Telum imbelle', symbolizing his unsoldierly conduct at Minden. His feet are cut off by the lower margin. Behind and below him (right) are the grinning heads of Lord Stormont and Lord Derby, saying "Hear Hear Hear". Sackville faces a flag inscribed 'Irish [P]ropositions', above which is a dove with an olive-branch, symbolizing the reconciliation between the Opposition and Sackville, who is supposed to be acting under their orders."--British Museum online catalogue
