Abstract:

Fox and Sheridan sit with their feet in the stocks, each smoking a short pipe. Fox directs a fierce glare at Pitt, who stands (right) in profile to the (left), correct and impassive, holding a tall constable's staff. Pitt is grotesquely thin; he wears a large round hat over his bag-wig, and a long old-fashioned coat with wide cuffs.
