“Burdett (right) and Brougham (left) as chairmen, carry (left to right) a bottomless sedan-chair enclosing O’Connell, who is forced to walk rapidly, looking from the window towards Brougham to say ‘Mighty like a walk this after all’. He wears barrister’s wig and gown. The chair is surmounted by shamrock and is inscribed ‘M.P.’ The chairmen wear livery coats; Burdett is bareheaded, and wears his usual top-boots and breeches; Brougham wears barrister’s wig and bands with a battered hat.”–British Museum online catalogue.
