= Very rare, only one other copy traced. One of the various contemporary caricatures on the 'Queen Caroline affair' in which king George IV of Great Britain tried to divorce from his wife Caroline of Brunswick by putting her on trial (August 1820) in the House of Lords for adultery. This trial coincided with the social unrest in the UK which culminated in the Peterloo Massacre (1819). In the aftermath the government tried to quel the unrest by introducing six acts to prevent any radical reform or revolutionary movements. This made the king and government very unpopular, which is why many favoured the queen in her case against the king as a way of protest, as shown in this caricature.
