The Prevailing Candidate, or the Election carried by Bribery and the Devil. Here's a Minion sent down to a Corporate Town ...
[n.d. c.1722] [But later]
Scarce engraving, 165 x 180mm (6½ x 7"), with large margins. Worm holes. Surface dirt.
Satire on the 1722 general election. A grand room with two long windows and a pier glass in the middle; a screen with seven folds is located to the left of this. Three men are visible on the right, one of whom is holding an office staff. They are reflected in the glass behind the screen. A candidate for office approaches a voter from the left side of the screen, taking him by the right hand while placing a purse in the man's pocket with his left. The voter, whose leg is chained, is described in the verses as a corporation member in a borough where only members of that kind could cast ballots. A clergyman standing in a doorway assures his wife that "bribery no sin." The voter is touched on the shoulder by the devil, who is hovering over the candidate and carrying a blank scroll. One of the two boys in the front, who is holding a wooden shoe—a representation of the repressive French regime—points to the transaction. The screen itself has small stars all over it. At the top are the names of several acts that the previous government passed, along with the years 1715–1722, written on seven folds: "Quarantine Act.../South Sea Act/Act to indemnify S.S. V[illai]ns/Part of ye Succession Act repeal'd/Septennial Act."

A charm for a democracy, reviewed, analysed & destroyed Jany 1st 1799 to the confusion of its affiliated friends.
[After Thomas Rowlandson]
Publish'd February 1st 1799 by [Wright's name erased] for the Anti Jacobin Review. by J Whittle Peterborough Court Fleet Street.
Etching with fine hand colour. Sheet 305 x 460mm (12¼ x 18"). Trimmed within plate. Vertical crease as normal in centre where previously folded.
Satirical illustration from the ‘Anti-Jacobin Review’ (vol. ii, frontispiece) depicts a chaotic, hellish scene titled the Cave of Despair, where radical political figures are shown as demonic conspirators. A divine light from above drives away evil, symbolizing divine intervention against revolution and sedition. Three robed figures (wizards) prepare a grotesque potion in a cauldron inscribed with names and symbols of rebellion, such as Kosciuszko’s blade (1746-1817) and Fox’s (1749-1806) fur, while the Devil and a monster watch approvingly. Pamphlets promoting radical ideas like atheism, sedition, and insurrection fuel the flames beneath the cauldron, added by figures like Horne Tooke (1736-1812). A grim procession of opposition politicians, including Fox, Erskine (1750-1823), Tierney (1761-1830), and Thelwall (1764-1834), file into the cave, each uttering phrases of regret or defiance. Above them, the King (1738-1820) and ministers like Pitt (1759-1806) and Grenville (1759-1834) appear in divine light, symbolizing order and justice. Meanwhile, defeated demons including Robespierre (1758-94) and Voltaire (1694-1778) flee, and an ape dressed as a newsboy (symbolizing the radical press) sounds his horn, spreading seditious ideas. The scene is a visual condemnation of revolutionary ideology, radical journalism, and political opposition, portraying them as part of a satanic conspiracy against Britain.

London. Published by Thomas M.cLean. 26. Haymarket. July 1.st 1829.
Fine hand-coloured etching, 250 x 350mm (10 x 13¾"), with large margins. Holes in left margin where previously bound.
A series of comic scenes shows Pickle’s brief and disastrous experiments with various fashionable pursuits. First, he becomes an antiquary, seated in a mock-Gothic room cluttered with worthless trinkets. Wearing a dressing gown, he admires a broken medallion portrait offered by a slick salesman who insists he’s giving Pickle a bargain for ''one little dirty pound.'' Next, Pickle takes up music. Relaxing by the fire in his dressing gown, he enthusiastically blows a French horn, unaware of the furious neighbour in a nightshirt standing at the door. The man complains that his entire household has been kept awake for hours by the dreadful noise. Trying something new, Pickle experiments with ballooning, only to fall from the sky into the Thames. A boatman catches hold of the rope dangling from the balloon, while a rustic on the riverbank waits with a pitchfork to assist the unlucky aeronaut. He then turns to painting, depicting a woman who soon recognizes herself in an unflattering caricature. Enraged, she overturns his easel, scatters his paints, and jabs her umbrella into the portrait, shouting that she’ll teach him not to make a joke of her. Next, Pickle tries his hand at poetry. In nightcap and dressing gown, he sits at his desk muttering helplessly over a rhyme for ''azure,'' finally giving up in exasperation. Finally, his attempt at chemistry ends in chaos. An experiment bursts into flames, setting the room and the cat’s tail on fire. As smoke and sparks fill the air, Pickle runs about shouting for help.
