The mirror of patriotism. (BM 1868,0808.5109), Fox in back view (half length) in the attitude of an orator, his right hand raised clasping a document. His reflection in a mirror which hangs on the wall is that of Cromwell in armour, in a similar attitude, with an angry frown.
Fox's left hand rests on a table on which are writing-materials, and a copy of the '[Morninjg Chronicle' on which can be read, 'Tuesday ... Hasty Sketch of yesterdays Business At half past Two o Clock Mr. . . rose and . . . State of Nation.' The document he holds is inscribed 'Resolution ... Resolved ... Resolved... Resolved.' A card stuck under the frame of the mirror is faintly inscribed, ' - Requested meet (?) the friend of the People (?) speak this evening.'  20 January 1784
