Design in oval. In a ballroom, Lord North, dressed as a lady in hooped petticoats and wearing his Garter ribbon, is dancing with Charles Fox who holds his hat in his left hand. Behind them sits Lord Chancellor Thurlow playing the bagpipes while at the same time receiving a bag of money handed him by Britannia who sits next to him. Thurlow retained the chancellor's office through two administrations preceding the North-Fox coalition before he was forced by Fox to resign. The bag of money may refer to the pension he was then granted
