"Lord Clermont (left) gallops (right to left) on a white pony, closely followed by a tall trooper with a drawn sword on a large horse. A little chimney-sweep has fallen on his back by the trooper's horse, dropping his brush and shovel. Behind are rails and a green slope."--British Museum online catalogue
