Description |
English: Three oval designs, two above with a larger one below, illustrating three satirical toasts. Above (left) is a half length portrait of Fox, with a calculating smile, seated at a table holding a dice-box; coins, another dice-box, and the Knave of Clubs (cf. BMSat 6976, &c.) are on the table. This is 'Honor and Honesty'. The companion oval contains a half length portrait of Wilkes, squinting violently as he writes 'N° 45 To the K'. Beside him is a book, 'Essay on Woman'. This is 'Love and Loyalty', cf. BMSat 6568, &c. In the larger oval the Prince of Wales (left) and Mrs. Fitzherbert (right) are seated together, gazing at each other, her arm round his neck. Before them on a narrow draped table is a book, 'Morris's Songs'. This is 'Fitz and good Company'. Cf. BMSat 6924, &c. 20 October 1786

Licensing
editThis image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
