Image description

Published by Thomas Tegg (1776-1846). A satire on the riots against the Corn Bill, which imposed tarriffs and restrictions on food and grain imported into Great Britain between 1815 and 1846. During the riots, on March 6, a mob surrounded the House of Commons and seized members of parliament, demanding to know their names and how they intended to vote.
