Silk handkerchief; plate print in brown ink with watercolours added by hand, 1830. This satirizes a visit by King William IV and Queen Adelaide to the City of London for the Lord Mayor's Banquet in 1830. The Duke of Wellington, unpopular because of his stand against parliamentary reform, and Sir Robert Peel, Home Secretary, advised the King not to attend. John Key, the Lord Mayor elect, was represented by the donkey. It was owned by the donor's great great grandfather, a comb maker in the City of London.
