This portraitback to top

This print commemorates his presentation of the second national petition to the House of Commons in 1842. He is shown resting his hand on the petition, a surprisingly rare Chartist prop from the series. A view of the statue of King George I from the spire of St George's, Bloomsbury, can be seen through the window.
