El tribunal

William Hogarth, 1758

The image shows a group of four judges seated closely together, positioned side by side and facing toward the center. They are engaged in a discussion. Each judge is depicted from the waist up, wearing wigs and robes typical of the period. Their facial features are exaggerated, with prominent noses, chins, and cheekbones. They wear round spectacles. Additionally, there are sketches of different profile heads with exaggerated features in the top section of the image. The background features detailed cross-hatching to depict an indoor scene, with a text panel at the bottom.
