Abstract:
"John Nash, misery personified, sits on the ground, in profile to the left, hands on knees, chin close to his hands; a harrow with huge spikes rests on his shoulders, and is thus tilted up, while a horse, its head cut off by the left margin, drags it along.

Abstract:
"George IV (left), plainly dressed in frogged coat with fur collar, sits in an arm-chair regarding Wellington with surprise. The Duke, dressed as a carpenter, approaches him from the right, bending forward and raising his paper cap which is shaped like a coronet. He is in shirt-sleeves with a high-collared waistcoat, and an apron over his own strapped white trousers. In his left hand is a saw. He says: 'I begs pardon your honor, but I can't stand it no longer--There's my foreman Bob, and Chancery Jack, as we calls him, are fighting instead of minding their work--The vagabonds von't be easy 'till I bundles 'em out.' He watches the King with wary intentness. On the wall behind him is a small picture of 'Bob & Chancery Jack': Peel and Lyndhurst (in his Chancellor's robes) facing each other in a pugilistic encounter."--British Museum online catalogue
