Royalty

Caption

Royalty, Episcopacy and Law by William Hogarth. Dated 1724. Hogarth even attacks Britain's monarchy and its supporters. He lampoons King George I, shown with a guinea coin for a head, holding a sceptre and an orb; a bishop, resting his leg on an over stuffed pillow; and a narcissistic lawyer in lavish costume, having a mallet for a head.
