George III        r. 1760-1820

 

 

 

James Gillray (1757-1815) was among the most popular, prolific, revered, and reviled print satirists
of the golden age of English caricature, the late eighteenth century.
He took special delight in attacking the excesses of the royal family.
Here, he caustically depicts King George III, Queen Charlotte, and the Prince of Wales (later George IV)
gorging themselves on the national treasury, labelled "John Bull's Blood."
The title, "Monstrous Craws," refers to the rapidly expanding gullets dangling from the royal necks,
probably inspired by the recent public display in London
of three "wild-born human beings," who apparently exhibited such features.
