[John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute] The Cat's Paw.
[n.d., c.1766.]
Etching. 250 x 355mm (9¾ x 14"). Small margins.
A satire on William Pitt's return to office in 1766: The Earl of Bute, depicted as a monkey, uses the paw of the Earl of Chatham (a cat) to extract chestnuts from a fire, with Chatham urinating in fear. Their respective supporters stand under paintings 'A View of Chatham' and 'A View of the Isle of Bute'. John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute (1713 - 1792), was a Scottish nobleman who served as Prime Minister under George III, and was arguably the last important favourite in British politics. Bute was initially a favourite of the king, but George turned against him after being criticised for an official speech which the press recognised as Bute's own work. This print satirises Bute's political relationship with William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham (1708 - 1778).

This volume features gorgeous colour reproductions of paintings that highlight the painter's genius for combining realism and lyricism. It includes numerous drawings and prints - among them the exceptional studies for his 'The Anatomy of the Horse' series. Informative essays discuss Stubbs' superb aesthetic sensibility, his far-reaching scientific studies, and his place in the pantheon of eighteenth-century European painters.
