The legacy [graphic].Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker[10 November 1786]eng"The white horse of Hanover, laden with two panniers (inscribed 'Sterling') overflowing with guineas, and a tea-tray with a tea-service, is being led off to the right by a scampering demon, wearing a high cocked hat and a coat, his hair in a queue. Under his arm is a sack inscribed 'light gold for charities'. A signpost (right) points 'To Hesse-Cassel'. A sack, labelled 'For Secret Services', with the legs and feet of an animal or demon walks behind the horse, which directs a blast of excrement towards the royal party. In the middle distance (left) the royal family stand disconsolately in a group: Queen Charlotte, much caricatured, holds up a slender purse to the King with a gesture of despairing astonishment. The King, who wears a hunting-cap, though melancholy, appears resigned. The younger children, ragged and in tears, surround their parents. Behind them is Windsor Castle. In the foreground (left) is the corner of a debtors' prison, a begging-box outside the barred window through which look the Prince of Wales, Burke, Fox, and North; George Hanger's profile is just visible within."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Printmaker from British Museum catalogue.Mounted on leaf 7 of volume 2 of 12.
