"Weird Sisters; Ministers of Darkness; Minions of the Moon" is a satirical etching by the renowned British caricaturist James Gillray, created in 1791. The artwork is a visual commentary on the political machinations of the time, depicting three prominent figures of the British political scene as the Weird Sisters from Shakespeare's "Macbeth." The etching portrays the characters in a grotesque and exaggerated manner, which is characteristic of Gillray's style, and serves as a metaphor for their perceived manipulation and influence behind the scenes of power.

In the etching, the figures are shown gathered around a cauldron, into which they throw various symbolic items, representing policies or events of the era. The imagery draws upon the supernatural themes of "Macbeth," suggesting that the political actors are engaging in dark and secretive practices to achieve their ends. Gillray's work is known for its sharp wit and intricate detail, and "Weird Sisters; Ministers of Darkness; Minions of the Moon" is no exception, offering a rich tableau for interpretation and reflection on the nature of political power and corruption.

As with many of Gillray's prints, this work was published by Hannah Humphrey and is considered an important piece of British satirical art. It reflects the turbulent political climate of the late 18th century and serves as a historical document that captures the public sentiment and skepticism toward the ruling elite of the time. The etching is held in various collections and remains a subject of study for scholars interested in the intersection of art, politics, and society in the Georgian era.
