"Caroline, in royal robes and crown, stands in her chariot, driving it and her pair of horses over the prostrate bodies of King, Ministers, Archbishop, and witnesses, while the royal troops flee in disorder and 'the People' led by Wood (in armour) and the Queen's lawyers advance with a banner: Victory, with laurel wreath and bonnet rouge. The Queen, her spear poised above the King, says Dieu et Mon Droit; the scythe of her chariot-wheel menaces the King's neck."--British Museum catalogue
"Caricature with Caroline as Boadicea in a chariot riding over her accusers, followed by a crowd of supporters."--British Museum online catalogue
