About this 3D model

Charles James Fox led the Whig political party and was an opponent of Pitt the Younger. Reckless in politics as at the gaming tables, Fox held office briefly as a Tory under Lord Northbut soon switched sides leading the opposition through a long political life. Fox supported parliamentary reform in England, independence for America, limited autonomy for Ireland and the regency of George, Prince of Wales. A supporter of the revolutionary cause in France, his credibility was diminished from 1792 by the excesses of the French revolutionaries. This bust is a bronze cast from an origin after Joseph Nollekens made in 1791, and housed at The V&A, The Scottish National Gallery and National Portrait Gallery.
