Condizione: Good. Handcolored etching. 35 x 25cm. Encased in a sleeve.BM J,4.46:Description Fox, as a beggar, stands hat in hand beside a magnificent brass-bound treasure-chest, with a slit for money, inscribed 'Catalines Subscription Box'. He says, "Pray Remmember Poor Cataline. for Oppositions sake remmember poor Cataline." He… weeps, his coat, waistcoat, breeches, and shoes are tattered, his stockings ungartered; dice-box and dice protrude from his pocket. The chest stands against a stone wall and is backed by a large framed notice: 'Supported by Voluntary | Contribution | Subscribers taken in here | The smallest Donations thankfully Reced | Charity covereth a Multitude of Sins . . . | And Humble Petitioner as in Duty Bound | Will Ever Pray' Presents monies Missing to Dad - one Million Cataline P.W. 1100,000 S T 5000 for Party D.E. 60 000 Sundries - 600,000 Purposes B.D. . . 50 won at Play }200,000 C.E. 10 000 P.W. P.D. 15 000 &c. &c. 1090,050. On each side of this huge notice-board is a modest placard: 'Poore Familys in Distress 20 Pounds would save from certain ruin a Man Wife & nine Children; A Tradesman in jail Solicits a Trifle to Support his Family, not being able to recover his just demands of some Peers & members of Parliament.' Beneath this is a heart-shaped collecting-box and a small bill: 'No Money'. On the wall a hand points (left): 'Way to the Crown and Anchor'. The title continues: 'alias the Dissipated Patriot, alias the Gamester, alias the Leader of Opposition alias the Word Eater [see BMSat 7390], alias the Soliciter for the French republic [see BMSat 8305] alias S------t Breeches [see BMSat 6580] alias the Protector [cf. BMSat 6380, &c] turned Begger.' 14 June 1793.Curator's comments (Description and comment from M.Dorothy George, 'Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires in the British Museum', VII, 1942) A satire on the subscription for Fox, see BMSat 8331, &c. 'Monies Missing' is an allusion to the squandering of Lord Holland's fortune, see BMSat 5223 (1774). The significance of the initials, other than those indicating the Prince of Wales (then estranged from Fox, cf. BMSat 8311), is obscure; they may (reversed) indicate Earl of Derby, Duke of Bedford, Earl of Carlisle, Duke of Portland. For Fox's winnings at faro see BMSats 5972, 5997 (1782). For Fox as Catiline see BMSat 6784, &c. For the title cf. BMSat 8142.Provenance : From the collection of Frederic Gale Ruffner, Jr., the founder of Gale Research, Detroit.
