Joseph Priestley caricature

Reason

Joseph Priestley, who is better known to the twenty-first century for his work in chemistry, was also notable as a religious dissenter. He was one of the founders of Unitarianism in the United Kingdom and North America. This caricature juxtaposes Priestley against Charles James Fox, a leading statesman of the era who disagreed with Priestley about religion but often agreed on other issues.

  • In color caricatures from this era the Devil also turns out bright red or blue. Will keep an eye out; interesting observation. Durova ²⁷³ 03:33, 4 July 2009 (UTC) reply
