Depicting a bishop with an air of authority and determination, the image exudes a sense of power and influence. The Bishop of Stepney is portrayed as a man who possesses unwavering decisiveness in his actions. This portrayal aligns with the artist's intention to create scathing satire that exposes societal norms and individuals' roles within them. The use of vivid colors adds depth to the composition while drawing attention to intricate details such as facial expressions and clothing.
