James Sayers.Carlo Khan's triumphal entry into Leadenhall street; This engraving appeared in December 1783; just after the Foreign Secretary Charles James Fox had published his India Bill. Fox is dressed in oriental costume and holds a flag inscribed 鈥楰ing of Kings' in Greek. He rides an elephant on which Lord North's face is superimposed; representing the alliance of the two secretaries of state. Edmund Burke; the statesman and actual author of the 1783 India Bill; blows a bugle; proudly announcing their arrival at the East India Company's headquarters in Leadenhall Street. Only the raven; sitting on a distant chimney top; hints at impending disaster.Published: 1783.1783.P3316London; British Library.
