From the 'Rambler's Magazine'. The King and Queen, the Prince of Wales, three princesses and two young princes are greatly distressed at the will of the Princess Amelia. The King sits (left) nearsightedly reading a paper; the Queen sits beside him weeping. The Princess Royal (right) sits opposite him also weeping. The Prince of Wales stands beside them, clutching his head in despair and holding up his hat and stick. On the wall behind him is an elevation of Carlton House with scaffolding, inscribed 'Charlton House', indicating the unfinished state of the Prince's building operations. Cf. BMSat 7167. Next it (left) is a framed three quarter length portrait of a smiling man inscribed Prince of Hesse. See BMSat 6991. 1 January 1787
