A recent escape / [I. Cruikshank].
London : Pubd. Decr. 21st, 1795, by S.W. Fores, No. 50 Piccadilly, 1795.
Formerly owned by Sir Robert Peel.
A satire on Pitt's unpopularity, owing to dearth and military failure. Color engraving of Pitt and Fox facing each other, their heads in profile. Pitt's face, hair, and elegant riding-dress are spattered with mudd; he holds a hat and switch, and stands with bent knees, saying "These are the Blessed effects of Your Patriotism, & be D -- to you." Fox, neatly dressed and very fat, holding his hands to his chest, grins broadly, saying, "Why dost thou shake thy Dirty Locks at me? Thou canst not say I did it--Muddy Banquo!"
Peel, Robert, 1788-1850, former owner.
