Thurlow (left) represents the world; his stomach protrudes in the form of a globe. He faces Hastings, who pours into an aperture in the globe guineas from the end of his turban which expands into a cornucopia. Thurlow, his hands raised deprecatingly, says "Lack [lakh] a day how you distress me". His hat is inscribed 'Spain', his wig 'Tartary', his shoulder 'C. of Good Hope', his arm 'Moorish State', his sleeve-ruffle 'France', his hands 'Alg' and 'iers', his robe 'Africa' and 'Chu[rc]h and State', his globe-waistcoat: 'Pacific O.', 'Great Britain', 'Europe', 'Torrid Zone'; his legs, 'Bengal', 'Ireland'; his shoes 'As-ia'.  Hastings wears a large feathered turban wreathed with jewels, and a long cloak over his oriental dress.   His belt is inscribed 'Virtues', through it are thrust an axe, a halter, and two (?) clubs.  28 February 1788
