An appropriate emblem for the triumphal arch of the new palace - dedicated to the poor penny-less-priest-ridden and paralysed John Bull, 1829; showing John Bull in fool's cap standing on top of Marble Arch with the new Buckingham Palace behind. The satire's an attack on the extravagant expenditure on the new palace.
