- Abstract
-
"Stanhope, followed by Derby, Lauderdale, M. A. Taylor, and Grey, advances from left to right, left arm outstretched in the attitude of an orator. All wear the correct dress of the Five Hundred, resembling that of BMSat 9197, but in different colours: white robe, red cloak, blue cap and sash. The borders of the robe are embroidered in red, of the cloak in blue. Lauderdale, who is usually dwarfish in caricature, appears tall compared with the short and obese Derby, whose arms are folded, and his head, as always, turned in 'profil perdu'. Behind Lauderdale is M. A. Taylor, also short, but taller than Derby. Above him towers a man usually identified as Byng; Lord Holland (MS. note) identifies him as Grey, 'not Byng'. They stand on flag-stones. See BMSat 9196."--British Museum online catalogue.
