[Clock Tower, Big Ben, The Houses of Parliament.] [No.10.] [The Clock Tower of the Houses of Parliament overlooking Westminster Bridge, contains the famous bell, so named in compliment to Sir Benjamin Hall, the First Commissioner of Works at the time the bell was cast. It weighs 13½ tons, and its chimes, which can be heard over a wide area of London, are broadcast daily as time signal by the British Broadcasting Corporation. The Clock, reputed to be finest time keeper in the world, is wound by an electric motor. The faces of the Clock are illuminated when the House of Commons is in session. The minute hands are 14 feet long, and the minute spaces are one foot square. A Latin inscription round the dial four times asks God to save Victoria the First.]

Burning of Parliament is the popular name for the fire which destroyed the Palace of Westminster, the home of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, on 16 October 1834. The blaze, which started from overheated chimney flues, spread rapidly throughout the medieval complex and developed into the biggest conflagration to occur in London since the Great Fire of 1666, attracting massive crowds. The fire lasted for many hours and gutted most of the Palace, including the converted St Stephen's Chapel (the meeting place of the House of Commons), the Lords Chamber, the Painted Chamber and the official residences of the Speaker and the Clerk of the House of Commons. Westminster Hall and a few other parts of the old Houses of Parliament survived the blaze and were incorporated into the New Palace of Westminster, which was built in the Gothic style over the following decades. J. M. W. Turner witnessed the fire, and painted the subject several times.

[Formally attributed to James Gillray now attributed to George Dance]
Pub 9th March 1783, by H. Humphrey N° 51 New Bond St.
Hand coloured etching, sheet 150 x 210mm (5¾ x 8¼") Trimmed to plate on bottom.
A scene in the House of Commons, a characteristic attack by Charles James Fox (1749 –1806) and Edmund Burke on Frederick North, 2nd Earl of Guilford, during North's ministry. The figures of Fox and Burke are rising from clouds, as if to suggest a vision of past debates. Lord North wears wig and sash, his arm extended upwards and text beneath which starts “want of candor”; in front of him is the lightly engraved Speaker, Charles Wolfran Cornwall (1735–1789).
