- Abstract
-
"The Duke of Richmond stands between two posts, supporting himself by a hand on each. He looks down and to the right, with a dismayed expression, vomiting a cascade of munitions of war: weapons, cannon, drums, &c, a fortress, a baggage-wagon, a windmill. One post (right) is inscribed '4 Per Chaldron 20,000 pr Anm', the other, 'Heriditary Income D'Aubigne'. A scroll floats towards him from the upper left corner of the design inscribed: 'Thou hast done those things thou ought not to have done And hast left undone those things thou oughfi [sic] to have done.'"--British Museum online catalogue
