Sink Ports (BM 1868,0808.6241) - Drawing. Public domain image.

Pitt, grotesquely thin, bends under the weight of a huge pile of sacks which he carries on his head, they are numbered '1', '2', '3', '4', '5' respectively, and each is inscribed '1000 l'. He walks in profile to the right, across a street, whose buildings are roughly indicated, towards a turning inscribed 'Downing Street'. He says "What an unlucky time to be thus Burthened but I'll holdfast even if they should Sink me." 7 December 1792
