Author
John Fairburn
Description
English: The R-[oya]L Cascade!! or Pumping Ship on board the Yatch [Yacht] (caricature)
A fairly crude nautical satire at the expense of George IV, who became king earlier in 1820 and is shown straddling a gun being sick - ostensibly from the motion of a lively sea, but by implication from the solicitous attention of his estranged wife Queen Caroline, seen to his left. The other woman on board is presumably one of his mistresses, possibly Mrs Fitzherbert. [PvdM 7/13]
