The borrow'd plume [graphic]Heath, Henry, active 1824-1850, printmaker[1829]engThe Duke of Wellington flys in a cloudy sky on a large quill pen, holding a pair of reins which are attached to the tip of the pen. From the tip hangs a scroll which reads "Bill for the relief of Roman Catholics." The point of the pen strikes George IV's eye; he stands in profile on the far right and exclaims "Oh, my eye the fellow has blinded me." Wellington looks over his shoulder at a bird with the head of Grey who flies after him from the left, beneath the pen's feather. Grey calls, "I say you Old Soldier you have stole one of my feathers! Hollo'a stop thief."Title etched below image.The artist's signature is an imitation of W. Heath's Paul Pry Esq., but this figure is obese and leans on a cudgel. Cf. British Museum catalogue.
