Abstract: "The Duke of York, in uniform, stands directed to the left, hands on hips, right leg raised, as if about to march. He says: "If I must March, I must however I shall leave my Baggage behind me!!" His back is turned to Mrs. Clarke who stands with arm appealingly outstretched, saying, "O You gay deceiver-to leave a poor Woman without Protector". She stands as in the House, in her familiar dress, muff in her left hand."--British Museum online catalogue
