Abstract:: "George IV as the 'Great Babe' lies asleep in his cradle rocked by Lady Conyngham, while Wellington, seated before a pier-glass, places the crown on his own head. The glass reflects the dark emaciated features of British Museum Satires No. 15520. The Duke wears a uniform with boots and sword. On a table below the glass the sceptre and orb lie on a cushion. Lady Conyngham, with a towering coiffure as in British Museum Satires No. 15508, croons: Oh slumber my darling | The time may soon come | When thy rest may be broken | By Trumpet & Drum [the last three words in large letters]. The infant sucks a thumb; a gouty foot projects from the coverlet. On the floor is a line of toys: a sailing boat on wheels, a model of Buckingham Palace reconstructed by Nash as in British Museum Satires No. 15668, a giraffe (see British Museum Satires No. 15425), a Life Guard on a toy horse, a Foot-Guard, a dismantled or unfinished ship resting on a prostrate toy soldier. A napkin on a towel-horse (right) indicates a nursery."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "Lord Barrymore and his two brothers are represented as figurines on the shelf of a chimney-piece, along which the title is etched. Each stands on a circular pedestal inscribed: (left to right) 'A Hell-gate Blackguard', 'A Newgate Scrub', and 'A Cripplegate Monster', the three brothers being known as Newgate, Hellgate, and Cripplegate. In the centre Barrymore, as Scrub, is seated as in Act iii of Farquhar's play, when in conference with Archer: dressed in livery and wearing an apron, his hands on his knees (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6221). On the left Augustus Barry, stripped to the waist and wearing boxing-gloves with a high hat, stands in the attitude of a pugilist, which his extreme thinness makes ridiculous. On the right Henry Barry grins and capers, holding a toy whirligig. He wears the fashionable dress of the bloods of the moment: high hat, long tight breeches reaching almost to the ankle, short wrinkled top-boots with enormous spurs. His coat is slipping off his shoulders and fastened by one button (a caricature of the fashion); all have cropped hair, cf. British Museum Satires No. 8040, &c. Over Barrymore's head is the lower part of a bust-portrait of the Prince of Wales in an oval frame."--British Museum online catalogue
