Description |
English: Fox stands in the foreground, in profile to the right, holding out his arms to a full moon (not irradiated) in the upper right corner of the design. A paper inscribed 'Arrangements New Ministry' hangs from his pocket; he tramples on a paper inscribed 'Delic[ac]y'. In the background North, Sheridan, and Burke kneel towards the rising sun of the Regency, inscribed 'Sole Rege', which appears above a hillock, emitting rays. North and Fox raise their clasped hands, Burke, dressed as a Jesuit (cf. BMSat 6026) but without his biretta, prostrates himself. c.December 1788 [So dated by Miss Banks]

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
