Henry Grattan, wearing bag-wig and sword, stands at the head of a kneeling crowd of Dubliners, including a monk, oyster woman, chimney-sweep, soldier and watchman. He is being presented with a paper inscribed "Grant of the sum of £100000..." by the Irish Speaker, Edmund S. Pery, behind whom stands another crowd of Irish notables.
