Abstract:
Elizabeth Chudleigh, Duchess of Kingston, attending her trial for bigamy. The maids of honour hold a bottle marked "cordial". They are followed by a fat chaplain, a physician with a bigwig and sword, and a lean apothecary with a big enema syringe and "Seven figures walk from left to right. First is the (so-called) Duchess of Kingston, short and stout. She is saying "By God and", and holds out her hands with a gesture of affirmation. Behind her walk three young women, her 'maids of honour', who are tall and slim in contrast with their mistress. One carries a large square bottle inscribed "cordial". All four ladies are dressed alike in the fashion of the day with low bodices and high coiffures decorated with feathers and flowers. Next comes a fat clergyman, his mouth open as of shouting. He is followed by the physician wearing a big-wig and sword. Last walks the apothecary, lean and bent, also wearing a sword, and carrying an enormous and ornately decorated syringe which rests on his right shoulder."--British Museum online catalogue
Description:
Elizabeth Chudleigh married the Hon. Augustus John Hervey secretly in 1744; the marriage was not registered until 1759. In 1769 a consistory court declared her unmarried, after which she married Evelyn Pierrepoint, 2nd Duke of Kingston, in 1770. She was tried and convicted for bigamy in 1776, the surgeon Caesar Hawkins having testified to the birth of her son by Hervey.

"A fashionably dressed man stands directed to the left, erect and debonair, a cane under his left arm. He takes a pinch of snuff, holding, besides the snuff-box, his top-hat. He has whiskers and small pigtail. From his coat-pocket projects a bottle labelled 'Two Spoonsfull to be taken at Bed time'. On the ground is a pill-box on its side, spilling its contents. He wears two thistles in the breast of his coat; a thistle-plant grows near his feet."--British Museum online catalogue
