EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print titled "A Kick at the Broad Bottoms! i. e. Emancipation of All the Talents" by James Gillray captures a moment of political chaos and tension during the early 19th century. In this satirical engraving, King George III is depicted with his face hidden behind a pillar as he grabs Lord Grenville's pigtail and brandishes his scepter threateningly. The members of the government, including Howick, Ellenborough, Buckingham, Temple, Windham, Moira, Sidmouth, and Sheridan are seen rushing out of the room in disarray while falling over one another.
