Abstract:: "The royal party on board a vessel which, though the sail is inscribed 'Southampton Frigate', resembles a fishing-vessel.

A princess (left) droops despairingly, another (right) appeals to Heaven for mercy. A sailor (left) carries off a bucket, holding his nose. Below the deck appear the heads of two beef-eaters, vomiting."--British Museum online catalogue.

The Duke, whose hat is on the ground, answers, "Satisfied? yes I am satisfied! that your whole race are a set of dastards! - & you may fire at me till the day of Judgment, e'er I will retract my opinion - or honor a Coward, by putting him out of the World!" The seconds stand behind their principals: 'Lord Raw--n', in profile to the right, a pistol in each hand, says, "Gunpowder is disgrae'd when used upon such reptiles! make them eat their own words, till they are choak'd, thats the way to quiet Charles's-bastard-brood" (cf. BMSat 7507); 'Lord Wine--l--a' (right), looking very frightened, holds an arsenal of pistols under his left arm, a blunderbuss in his right hand, saying, "Would that I had not meddl'd in the business, or, that I could get over to the other side."

8. Britannia between death and the doctor's [graphic] : "Death may decide when doctor's disagree" / Js. Gillray inv. et fect.

Creator:: Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker.
Call Number:: Auchincloss Gillray v. 5
Image Count:: 1
Abstract:: A satire of Pitt's return to office in 1804. Pitt is shown in the chamber of Britannia. Britannia sits listlessly on a bed, holding a sword in one hand. Next to her, leaning against the bed, is her shield and olive branches. Pitt holds aloft a bottle labelled "Constitutional Restorative" as he kicks another man, a caricature of Addington, through the door. Addington is in the process of dropping a bottle labelled "Composing Draft". With his other foot, Pitt steps on the face of a flailing and prostrate Fox, who holds a bottle labelled "Rebublican Balsam" towards Britannia. From Fox's pocket dice and a dice container labelled "Whig Pills" have fallen. Emerging from behind the bed curtains, the figure of Death, a skeleton with the face and plumed bicorne of Napoleon, overturns a table and upsets bottles of medicine and points his sword toward the unsuspecting Britannia.

Abstract:: "A pugilistic encounter between the Duke of York (left) and Lt.-Col. Charles Lennox (right), both stripped to the waist. The Duke stands with both fists clenched, saying, "Come on my Lad! don't fall without a Blow! I'll tickle your Mazzard, if you dare to stand up like a Man!" Lennox, on one knee, clutches the arm of his second, the Duke of Richmond, saying, "O save me Nunkle! - O Lord! - O Lord! - O Lord! Your H--h--ss is above my Match! - O Lord - I'm not fit to fight any body above your Footman". Richmond puts out a hand to restrain his nephew, saying with an expression of alarm, "For heavens sake, forbear! we are nothing but a brood of Bastards! Bastards begot - Bastards instructed - Bastards in Mind - Bastards in Valour - in every thing illegitimate - we are neither of Blood, or of Honor, to cope with your Hi-h--ss!!" The Prince of Wales, on the extreme left, is his brother's second; he says, with a contemptuous expression, "Fredrick! cant you tip his bottle holder a sly plump in the Bread-basket?" Behind him is a Union flag; behind Richmond are fortifications flying a French flag, symbolizing his French descent and title ..."--British Museum online catalogue.
