Satirical cartoon, Thoughts on Matrimony

Satirical cartoon, Thoughts on Matrimony. The Prince of Wales gazes at an alluring portrait of his lover Lady Jersey hanging above a fireplace, while dangling a miniature portrait of his future wife, Princess Caroline of Brunswick. A German diplomatic courier, grotesquely caricatured, is holding up a pair of stockings, no doubt informing the Prince that the Princess is on her way. The Prince had consented to marry on condition of the payment of his debts and an increased income
