Abstract:
"Satire on Robet Walpole's move to the House of Lords: A large room in which Walpole is pushed at swordpoint by the masked figure of Justice towards a group of lords who wait to receive him. He is led by a lion carrying a coronet in its teeth which says, "Follow me Sr. Blew String", and he holds his hand to his head, saying "I go in hopes to save this & trust to ye Hat". On the left, a group of four members of the Commons, wearing jockey caps and boots, surround Lord Pulteney. In the background are two shop stalls, "Deards from St. Dunstans" selling expensive trinkets, and "Dent's Snuff Shop"."--British Museum online catalogue
