Rowlandson, Thomas, 1756-1827 · November 25, 1784
A lady on horseback rides between Pitt and Wilberforce mounted on asses. The ass (left) on the lady's right is galloping, its rider (Wilberforce) waves his hat triumphantly towards Pitt whose ass refuses to move. A man standing behind it (right) by a milestone inscribed 'Wimbledon Common', is about to kick the ass violently. The lady, whose horse is restive, raises her riding-switch to beat Pitt's ass.
