Hand-coloured satirical print, emphasizing the involvement of women in Charles James Fox's campaign for the Westminster election of 1784. Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire plays a particularly prominent role in a procession of Fox supporters to the hustings at Covent Garden. The print also emphasizes the material culture of elections, for example, the cockades worn and the banners held by those in the procession.
