"Design in two strips; the upper, eight bored and gloomy Englishmen fidgetting uncomfortably in armchairs, one yawning, one contemplating a dagger with a discarded copy of Goethe's 'Werter' at his feet, another firing a pistol at his jaw; the lower, seven Frenchmen joyously celebrating, one dancing, one setting out to a hunt, another stroking a dog wearing a cape and with its paws in a muff, a fat monk partaking of victuals."--British Museum online catalogue
