Pairs of elegantly dressed and coiffed ladies and gentlemen sit around a long table drinking champagne. On a dais sits 'Perdita' (Mary Robinson) who assures the Prince of Wales of her undying love. He looks at her adoringly and says, "Now what care I for Mom and Dad, let 'em scold and bellow." His left hand rests on books piled up on the table (the titles of which are also listed in the publisher's advertisement). Another lady on his left looking at him may be Elizabeth Armitstead (later Mrs. Fox) who succeeded Mrs. Robinson as his mistress. Other members of this group include Lord Derby and his actress wife, Elizabeth Farren, and Charles James Fox. The location appears to be the Schomberg House where James Graham established his 'Temple of Health and Hymen' famous for its 'Celestial Bed' (cf. British Museum catalogue no. 6325). Allusion to George IV's coming of age
