Lady Godina's rout; - or - Peeping-Tom spying out Pope-Joan, by James Gillray (died 1815), published 1796. See source website for additional information. According to the National Portrait Gallery of the UK, the caricature refers to Lady Georgiana Gordon (1781–1853), Duchess of Bedford from 1803 until her death; the title and the lecherous servant refer to Lady Godiva. Pope-Joan is a card game; Lady "Godina" is holding the diamond nine, which is called the "Pope" in that game. The man sitting on Lady "Godina"'s right is John Sneyd (1763–1835); the fat woman sitting on her left is Albinia, Countess of Buckinghamshire (died 1816). The fashion of women wearing vertical feathers or plumes in their head-dresses is abundantly satirized.
