"Henry Hunt (right) hurls a jar of his 'Hunts Matchless Blacki[ng]' at the Lord Mayor (William Thompson). The Mayor, who wears his gown, raises the City mace defensively in both hands. Hunt registers frenzied rage; he holds a second jar in his left hand; at his feet is a paper: 'Petition against increased Duty on Coals'. Just behind him is a pugnacious coal-heaver clutching a blacking-jar; he says: 'Go it, my covey another black un--d--n me, if Blackey and Coaley can't do it the devil's in 'em.' The Mayor smiles, despite a cascade of blacking. Behind him and on the extreme left is a barrister in wig and gown, probably the Recorder (Newman Knowlys). He says: 'Mind what your at my hearty--keep up your favorite guard or he'll beat you as black as his own factory.'"--British Museum online catalogue
