Title |
Sawney ganging back again being turned out of place |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: Beneath it is a printed song. The 'Morning Chronicle' ascribes the design to “a well known Rt. Hon. Artist” [Lord Townshend], the song to ”the Man of the people”, that is C. J. Fox. A Scot in Highland dress is walking away from the 'Crown Inn', he looks round at a chained mastiff (left) which is barking savagely at him. He carries off his plunder: in his right hand is a purse, a sceptre appears over his right shoulder, a sack is slung on his back.

Notes |
(Description and comment from M.Dorothy George, 'Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires in the British Museum', V, 1935) The 'Morning Chronicle', 28 June 1782, regards this print as "much superior to any thing that has appeared since the change of the ministry, that called the Royal Hunt not excepted". For "Sawney ganging" as the result of the new Ministry, see BMSat 5961. John Bull, his sister Peg, and Sawney Mackenzie are the subject of BMSat 3904 (1762), a satire on Bute. In BMSat 3890 John Bull is George III, his house being St. James's Palace. Attributed to Bartolozzi by Calabi, BMSat 2239. |

[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. ![]() |
