"A strapping young courtesan holds against her neck a ladder up which an elderly naval officer, less than half her height, begins to climb, looking up avidly. He holds a telescope, and wears a ribbon inscribed 'Death or Victory'. From her feathered hat streams a ribbon inscribed 'England expects every Man To do his Duty.' She wears a belt inscribed 'Belly Rough One' [Bellerophon] above the figure '74'. The scene is the quay-side between large cannon. A ship's boat rows out to a man-of-war at anchor."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
