Intriguingly, this print showcases an array of distinguished individuals from various backgrounds and professions. Among them are notable politicians such as Baronet H. W. Freeland, Sir Francis Goldsmid, and Colonel Nassau Lees. Admirals Henry Keppel and Sir Edward Commerell also grace this gathering alongside renowned doctors like Dr. W. H. Russell and Sir Joseph Fayrer. The composition captures the atmosphere of intense discussion and collaboration that defined these meetings at Stafford House. Each participant's presence exudes authority and expertise in their respective fields. Durand Godefroy's meticulous attention to detail brings to life not only the participants but also their surroundings – ornate furnishings adorned with intricate designs create an ambiance befitting such important deliberations. This engraving serves as both a visual record of history and a testament to the power wielded by those who shaped it behind closed doors.
