George Conyngham, Marquess Conyngham — 'Mount'

Spy (Leslie Ward) presents the Marquess Conyngham in profile, slumped comfortably in a wooden wheeled chair — a campaign or garden chair of the sort associated with sporting and military ease. He wears a peaked military-style cap, smokes a cigarette whose wisp curls upward, and holds a card or note in his gloved hand. The caption 'Mount' signals his identity through his Irish territorial title rather than his surname. The caricature gently mocks aristocratic indolence: a peer of ancient Anglo-Irish lineage photographed, as it were, in studied repose, contributing little beyond his rank.
