About this work

A hand-colored caricature titled The Balance of Power, dated 1801 and credited to Charles Williams. Two elaborately wigged men in court dress sit on one pan of a large gilded balance, while a uniformed officer in a plumed hat and blue coat with a sword stands on the opposing pan, which rises high above them. A speech balloon above the seated men complains about the sword that has made them kick the beam.
