A keen sighted politician warming his imagination (BM J,3.3), A companion print to BMSat 8656. Grenville stands on a hearth-rug, his back to a blazing fire (right), holding up to his face an open book inscribed: 'Fundamental Principles of Government for 1795', at which he looks sideways and near-sightedly.   He raises his coat-tails to warm his bulky posteriors, his left hand in his breeches pocket. On the chimney-piece lie two books: 'Court Cookery' and 'Locke on Human Understanding'. Hanging above it is a 'Map of British Victories on the Continent' on which confused scrawls are depicted.   On the back wall (left) is a bracket supporting a bowl of gold-fish, above which is a picture of the 'Treasury Bench': three Ministers seated as if in Parliament, in back view with their coats drawn aside to show their bulky posteriors; the wall of the Treasury forms a background. Beneath the title is etched in two columns: 

'"Lord-Pogy boasts no common share of head; 
"What plenteous stores of knowledge may contain 
"The spacious tenement of Pogy's brain! 
"Nature in all her dispensations wise, 
"Who form'd his head-piece of so vast a size, 
Hath not, 'tis true, neglected to bestow 
Its due proportion on the part below; 
And hence we reason, that to serve the state 
His top & bottom, may have equal weight."' 13 June 1795

気鋭の政治家が彼の想像力を温める様子(BM J,3.3) BMSat 8656のコンパニオンプリント。グレンヴィルは炉裏に立って炎上する炎の背を向け、顔に「1795年の政府の基本原則」と書かれたオープンブックを掲げ、横向きで近視眼的に見える。彼は、のポケットに左手のかさのある後部を暖めるためにコートテールを上げます。煙突には「コート・クッカリー」と「人間理解のロック」の2冊の書籍が並んでいる。上から「大陸のイギリス戦勝の地図」という、混乱した戦乱を描いたもの。裏壁には金魚鉢を支えるブラケットがあり、その上に「宝庫ベンチ」の写真がある。タイトルの由来は「ロードポジーは頭の共有度合いがよくない。」という2つの柱に示されている。「彼女のすべての処分は賢明であり、「彼の首飾りは、非常に大きなサイズのものだったが、ハスは「忠実で、下の部分のその比率を考慮に入れ忘れていた。そして、国家に仕えるために彼の上と下の服は、同じ大きさになるかもしれない」」 1795年6月13日 手彩色のエッチング
