The Duke and Duchess of St. Albans stand facing each other; the little Duke staggering under an ornamental basket which supports a side of bacon, inscribed 'Best Wiltshire' . The Duchess holds on her shoulder a cutter in which are seated six oarsmen with oars held erect, and a helmsman. The Duke is dressed as Grand Falconer and wears a hood with bells indicating both a fool's cap and the hood and bells of falconry. In 1827 William Beauclerk, 9th Duke of St Albans, married Harriet Mellon, widow of the banker Thomas Coutts. An extremely wealthy former actress, she was 23 years older than her husband, giving ammunition to the satirists. The following year, to celebrate their anniversary, they held a reception, attended by two royal dukes and Prince Leopold (seen on the left). The Duke presented his wife with a silver fruit basket on which was engraved a flitch of bacon; the Duchess then announced her gift of a six-oared cutter called The Falcon, and the boatmen in their liveries made an appearance.

[Paul Pry monogram] Esq Del
London, Published by Tho.s McLean 26 Haymarket, 1827
Etching with hand-colouring, platemark 265 x 375mm (10½ x 14¾"), with very large margins. Trimmed inside platemark; unidentified collector's stamp verso.
Two contrasting men, exemplifying different fashions and physiognomies. The printmaker William Heath (1794-1840) used the pseudonym Paul Pry (taken from the name of a character in John Poole's 1825 comedy, and used to describe a very inquisitive person) between 1827-9, and rather than signing his name he used the 'Paul Pry' monogram seen here, a small man holding a walking stick. However this figure began to be copied by other caricaturists (including Sharpshooter ) and so Heath reverted to his own name.

One of many satires on the authors of the Catholic Relief Bill, which was announced on February 5 1829, playing on the Catholicism of Guy Fawkes and his co-conspirators. Here Wellington and Peel are "guys", tied back to back, bestride a broken chair on which they are being carried to bonfire or gibbet. A bloated bishop in a surplice, probably Howley, walks behind, holding the back chair-legs and saying 'No Popery'. Eldon (who led opposition to the Bill) carries the front of the chair, facing an angry Irishman in tattered clothes protesting against the ceremony, whose barrister's wig identifies him as O'Connell. . In the foreground, on the extreme left, is John Bull, behind him the head of Cumberland.
