Depicts an enormously obese gentleman transporting his protruding stomach by means of a wheelbarrow and mopping his brow with a handkerchief, while behind him in an extreme contrast, an emaciated and ragged porter follows carrying on his shoulder a large basket containing turtle, hare, bottles and other delicacies, as well as several more bottles under his arm. The gentleman is headed towards a wineshop on the right, over which a sign advertises "Good eating & cool rooms", while across the street stand a row of tenements, the closest bearing several signs; "I. Nabbem Taylor", "Shafe & cut hear" and "Dinners & shirt wash'd for 2 pence."
