"An Irishman seated on a bull which is galloping across open country towards London, seen in the distance on the right., St. Paul's being visible. He wears a short jacket and ragged knee-breeches, his legs and feet are bare. His hair is dishevelled and he is urging on the bull with his hat, which is raised in his right hand. He sits facing the animal's tail, which he holds in his left hand. From his saddle-bag appear books: "St Pat . ." and "New System of Fortune Hunting"; a paper hangs out of it inscribed with a list of ladies with fortunes, beginning "Lady Mary Rotten Rump St James Square 30,000£". A sack inscribed "Potatoes" is tied to the bull in front of the saddle. A milestone shows that it is "IIII Miles from [London]".--British Museum online catalogue

"John Bull (left) and a Frenchman (right) sit on two chairs; each scowls over his shoulder at the other. The Englishman is stout and plainly dressed, his hair is short and without powder, he wears top-boots. In his right hand he holds a foaming tankard which rests on his knee; in his left is a gnarled stick. The Frenchman is thin, wears a pigtail queue, ruffled shirt and laced waistcoat. He clutches in both hands a bowl in which is a spoon, evidently the soup-meagre of English caricature. Each man has a dog under his chair, and the beasts snarl at each other. The English dog is some sort of mastiff; his collar is inscribed "T. Crus[ty]"; the French dog is of greyhound type. Over John Bull's head is engraved "You be D------m'd"; over the Frenchman's, "Vous etes une Bete"."--British Museum online catalogue
