- Abstract
-
"Print of five clergymen over-indulging with food and drink in the Vestry room. They sit around a large table drinking, one member, with his foot bound with gout sits with his back to the viewer. On the left a footman kicks away a family of beggars from the door and towards the Workhouse, a sign for which may be seen in the background. A line of more malnourished beggars can be seen outside the window of the Vestry."--Royal Collection Trust online catalogue
