File:Alexander Pope as Pope Alexander.png

Satirical print depicting "A--- P--E," for Alexander Pope, depicted as a pope, with papal tiara and atop a stack of Pope's works. The Latin says, "Know thyself," and the verse at the bottom is Pope's own satire on Thersites. From Pope Alexander, an anonymous lampoon written in response to Dunciad in 1729. The print was also sold separately.

Other portraits of Pope markedly fail to display his curved spine (caused by a tubercular infection received at the age of 10). Compare the portraits in Alexander Pope and particularly the one in Image:Pope-dying.png, which is full length and obscures the spine. However, the satirist makes use of Pope's hunchback to make his monkey look almost like a rat.
