The Gordon Riots is an 1879 history painting by the British artist John Seymour Lucas.

[1][2] It depicts the Gordon Riots that took place in London in June 1780.

Inflamed by Lord George Gordon, crowds protests against the government of Lord North's measures reducing discrimination against Catholics rapidly descended into a week of rioting.

Eventually units of the British Army were deployed in the capital to restore order.

Today it is in the collection of the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, having been purchased in 1881.
