[Depiction of the court at Glubbdubdrib]

Description
-
This image is a depiction of a court scene from Gulliver’s Travels, likely to the land of Glubbdubdrib. The image appears to depict a stage, as there are curtains along the top of the image, with lights lining the bottom of the stage, denoting the difference from the stage and the man, likely Gulliver, who observes the king and a courtier on the stage. A wall separates Gulliver from the other characters. Statues in the Classical or Neoclassical style line the walls of the hall, with stairs at the back leading to a throne. This image also appears in the 1746 von Wiering German edition of Gulliver's Travels.
