"Stanhope, striding forward in profile to the left, approaches an altar to 'French Principles', while with his left foot and left hand he overturns a bishop seated behind him on a bench. On the summit of a quasi-cylindrical altar is the seated figure of a female monster with webbed wings, snaky hair, and pendent breasts, a firebrand in the right hand, a dagger in the left. Behind her stands a foppish Frenchman with a simian head, dressed as a soldier, one foot resting on a large skull. In his right hand is a headsman's axe, in his left he holds out to Stanhope a hangman's noose. Stanhope places on the altar a paper inscribed in large letters: 'Philosophy Atheism Rapine Murder'. The altar itself is decorated with a headsman's axe and block, the word 'Liberté' in a wreath, and shackles. At its foot lie a cross and an overturned chalice. The bishop's head is turned in back view; he topples backwards as Stanhope kicks his bench; he represents the bench of bishops ..."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A wooded scene in the immediate suburbs of London, with St. Paul's in the background. Two 'cits' with guns prepare to fire, since their dog points at a bush, behind which, concealed from the sportsmen, squats a man excreting (left). A man holding a powder-flask watches with amusement from the top of a gate (right). Another dog sits in the foreground (right). Beneath the title is engraved: 'Against the Wind he takes his prudent way, While the strong Gale directs him to the prey; Now the warm scent assures the covey near, He treads with caution & he points with fear. Gay. -------------------------clausisque expectat ocellis; θυμπον---------------------------------------------'."--British Museum online catalogue
