About this work
A lithograph caricature by John Doyle, dated 1844-1847, shows Hercules and Iolas attacking a many-headed Hydra that emerges from the columns of a classical building. Each head bears the label Recall, and the Hydra's coils are marked with labels such as Patronage, Nepotism, Opium, and Army and Navy. The title and the caricatured heads present the scene as a satirical political allegory.
