James Gillray, detail from Taking Physick , 1792. The British Museum, London. Studio of John Bacon (1740-99), Bust of George III, c 1788, marble, Private Collection Yes, this is the right answer! These images both represent
King George III (1738-1820) The image on the right is a formal portrayal of King George III, who came to the throne in 1760 and ruled for almost all of Gillray's life. The drapery around the marble bust is intended to give the King the authority of a noble Roman leader. Gillray knew that his caricatures would be seen against such formal and flattering portrayals, and was not afraid wickedly to exaggerate the King's appearance and his behaviour. He frequently suggested that, far from being a brave and noble leader, the King was in fact dull, mean and lacking in courage.

Contents
  • Introduction
  • Background and Early Life
  • Career Introduction
    Britain's first foreign secretary (1782, 1783, 1806), a famous champion of liberty, whose career, on the face of it, was nevertheless one of almost unrelieved failure. He conducted against King George III a long and brilliant vendetta; for this reason he was almost always in political opposition and, in fact, held high office for less than a year altogether. He achieved only two important reforms, steering through Parliament a resolution pledging it to abolish the slave trade speedily and, in the 1792 Libel Act, restoring to juries their right to decide not merely whether an allegedly libellous article had, in fact, been published but also what constituted libel in any given case and whether or not a defendant was guilty of it. Background and Early Life. Charles James Fox was born in Conduit St. in London on the 24th of January 1749. He was the third son of Henry Fox, 1st Baron Holland of Farley (1763) and Lady Caroline Lennox, daughter of 2nd Duke of Richmond, and great- granddaughter of Charles II. Henry Fox was a Tory politician, notable chiefly for the success with which he exploited public office for private gain.
    His father gave Charles James the best education but also believed that 'nothing should be done to break his spirit' so he was fully indulged. While still a child he had been promised that he might watch a wall being demolished on the family estate. However, when his rather found out that it had been demolished with Charles being there to see this happen, he insisted that the wall be rebuilt and demolished again so Charles might have the promised treat.

    28. University Of York - Centre For Eighteenth-Century Studies - A DEMOCRAT, Or REAS
    It represents the Whig politician, Charles James Fox (17491806) as a raggedFrench sans-culotte. His hands are bloodstained as is his dagger.
    http://www.york.ac.uk/inst/cecs/cjfox.htm
    A Democrat, or
    This print is by the satirist James Gillray, and was published on the 1st March 1793. It represents the Whig politician, Charles James Fox (1749-1806) as a ragged French sans-culotte. His hands are bloodstained as is his dagger. He is unshaven, hairy. His gaiety suggests drunkenness, and he is also farting. He is wearing the Cap of Liberty, with the tri-coloured French cockade. He is singing a well-known French revolutionary song. After the execution of Louis XVI in Paris in January 1793 the struggle between those Whigs, led by Fox, who supported the principles of the French Revolution and the more conservative group led by the Duke of Portland, became acute. Gillray's conservative satire portrays Fox as a bloodstained revolutionary linked by association with Parisian violence, suggested here as the inevitable consequence of the principles of the Enlightenment, of democracy and rationalism. Gillray is pretending that Fox was a 'democrat' in the sense of favouring universal manhood suffrage, or at least a wide extension of the right to vote, though Fox never advocated such extension, nor was he hostile to hereditary monarchy. The contrast is also between the supposed abstract rationalism of Fox's ideas, and his figure which is here shown as representing the worst excesses of passion and violence, animal-like in its hairiness and physicality. He was reputed to be the anonymous author of An Essay Upon Wind; with curious anecodtes of Eminent Persons

    King George's Declaration on the Breakdown of the Peace, 18 May 1803, And Related Documents.
    Part I: Introduction
    By Tom Holmberg This declaration spells out the views of the British government on the causes of the failure of the Treaty of Amiens.  It was directed both at the domestic and foreign public.  Both Britain and France were actively attempting to sway public opinion at home and abroad, blaming the other for the eventual renewal of hostilities.  Neither side wished to appear to be the one who broke the peace. Also included are the questions sent to the French commercial agents in Great Britain discussed in the King's Declaration, the article published in the Hamburgh newspaper also mentioned in the Declaration outlining the French case for the rest of Europe, and the response of two members of Parliament in opposition to the King's message.  See also, elsewhere on this site, a copy of Sébastiani's report, referred to in the documents below. Great Britain complained that Napoleon's insistence on Britain prosecuting émigré journalists publishing calumnies against Napoleon and his family and incitements to assassination were a violation of the freedom of the press.  Yet as seen below, Britain was equally incensed over French propaganda in the newspapers of Europe.

Complete rankings are here One of several towns granted to Timothy Andrews (sometimes Andrus). The Vermont Legislature made several grants to Andrews and his associates in 1779, but without stipulating actual sites. It was 1787 before the specific locations were agreed upon; the charters were then written and backdated to 1779. This practice is seen several times in connection with towns in northern Vermont, and it always makes for trouble in interpreting boundary descriptions, because the points of reference given in the legislative grants often no longer existed at the time the charters were back-dated. The most commonly accepted story about the origin of Holland's name is that the town was named for Holland, Massachusetts, which in turn was named for Lord Holland, Charles James Fox (1749-1806), who won America's love by his eloquent defense of her rights in the years just before the outbreak of the Revolution. While it is, in fact, possible that the Vermont town was named for the Massachusetts one, the second half of the story is incorrect. Charles James Fox never was Baron Holland. He missed out on the title because he was only the second son of Henry Fox (1705-74), the first Baron; the title went to his elder brother, Stephen, from whom it then went to Stephen's son, another Henry. Therefore, if the Massachusetts town was indeed named for Lord Holland, it was to honor the first Henry, who was a distinguished statesman in his own right.
