notes:
This cartoon satirizes Paine's Rights of Man by placing him in a group of monkeys. The publication of Rights of Man, a defense of the French Revolution, caused an uproar in England where Thomas Paine was tried in absentia and convicted for seditious libel against the Crown. Paine fled to France in 1792, to avoid hanging.
