- Abstract
-
"Francis, wearing his hat, stands in a theatrical attitude, his head turned in profile to the right, glaring fiercely (as in British Museum Satires No. 7268). His fists are clenched, the left arm across his breast. Beside him is etched: '"I hate Alonzo" Zanga'". Francis, inveterate enemy of Hastings, cf. British Museum Satires No. 7268, is represented as Zanga in Dr. Young's 'The Revenge' (1721)."--British Museum online catalogue
