"Satire on grand toursts: two Englishmen travelling throught the German countryside in a post-chaise, from right to left; one man threatens the postillion with a pistol and cane urging him to drive faster while the other smiles; the postillion is seated smoking a pipe on a farm horse, one of three drawing the carriage; a paper reading "Drink Gelt to pay by order of ye Queen" protrudes from his pocket, while another reading, "Maut und Drink Gelt" lies on the ground; before engraver's name scratched out."British Museum online catalogue
