Abstract: "A tall young man rides a prancing horse in profile to the right. He wears a round hat, Jean-de-Bry coat (see BMSat 9425) with flying coat-tails over two waistcoats, the outer one being double-breasted. Long pantaloons and flat pumps complete a costume very unsuitable for riding. He holds the curb-rein negligently; the snaffle lies on the horse's neck. Above the design: '------the right heel assiduously aside Provokes the Caper, which he seems to hide.'"--British Museum online catalogue.
