'Moments of pleasure', 1820. Artist: Anon
'Moments of pleasure', 1820. Queen Caroline, seated on a couch receives the news of the Bill of Pains and Penalties being dropped and Alderman Matthew Wood dances around in front of her. The bill, the purpose of which was to strip Queen Caroline of her title and dissolve her marriage to King George IV, was passed by the House of Lords but was dropped as there was thought to be no prospect of it being passed by the House of Commons. © The London Archives (City of London)/Heritage Images
