Fox, Charles James, 1749-1806 and Pitt, William, 1759-1806
"The Marquis of Buckingham, tall and bulky, stands against a measuring-post (left); Lord Derby, standing on a table, adjusts the horizontal bar to his head. Buckingham, wearing dark spectacles, stands without his shoes (which lie beside him), and holding his hat; he faces Fox, who is seated on a drum (right), and says: "To Pitt I made my Proposition But he rejected the Condition So I enlist with Opposition". He holds out to Fox a paper: 'Condition to be first Lord of the Admiralty'. Fox, taking the paper, scrutinizes it through a glass with a pleased smile. His drum is inscribed 'C F' and beside him is a spear from whose tasselled head hangs a placard: 'Watch Word Peace'. From the top of the measuring-post flies a flag of three horizontal stripes inscribed 'The Standard of Opposition.'"--British Museum online catalogue

"A thin elderly woman stands full-face, looking sourly to the left, holding out her right arm, from which an enormous fan points to the ground. Her left arm is akimbo. She wears a short-waisted dress with a separate train; her drooping breasts are defined by drapery, her thin arms by tight-fitting sleeves; her neck is heavily swathed. Her hair falls down her back from a twisted turban (see BMSat 8755) decorated with a group of erect ostrich-feathers, and a huge brush-aigrette. She wears large earrings, and an oval medallion is suspended from her neck on a heavy chain."--British Museum online catalogue
