In my previous examination of the depictions of Edward, 1st Baron Thurlow (1731–1806) in New College’s collection of prints by famous satirist James Gillray (1756–1815), I identified eight depictions of that long-serving 18th-century lord chancellor. One of these attributions I argued was inconclusive but likely not to be Lord Thurlow. Following a deeper examination of the collection, I have identified an additional five Gillray prints held by New College containing depictions of Thurlow. An additional two prints supposedly containing depictions of Thurlow in the collection have been mistakenly attributed to Gillray, and I also argue that in one of these prints a figure has been misidentified as Thurlow.
