The Holy Alliance Unmasked.
E. Purcell.
London Pub, Feb 1823, by J Dickinson 114 New Bond St.
Hand-coloured lithograph, printed area 250 x 290mm (11¾ x 9½"). Large tear on left going just into image; rare.
Satire, presumably on the 1822 Congress of Verona, in which representatives of the Quintuple Alliance (Russia, Austria, Prussia, France and the United Kingdom) debated, amongst other matters, the 'Spanish Question'. This concerned the proposed French intervention in Spain to restore Ferdinand VII to his throne and bring an end to the 'Trienio Liberal' of 1820-3, three years of liberal democracy following a popular uprising against the king. Those assembled are in favour of restoring the king with the exception of Wellington, on the right, who denounces this 'Unholy Alliance' and insists 'I will have no hand in it'.
For another impression see ref. 37334.
