About this work

A hand-colored satirical print titled The Fox That Lost His Tail, attributed to Charles Williams and dated 1798. Anthropomorphic foxes with human faces gather around a central fox who displays his bare rump, while a severed tail rests on a block and a crowned document reads Pro Rege Lege Grege. The composition draws on the Aesop fable and uses sharp line work with pale washes of color.
