A angry old hag sitting in a chair is lowered into a body of water by jeering crowd. A little boy on the right urinates in her direction. A cat in a bowl floating in the water howls in her direction. A calf sits between the large man blowing a trumput. Various people in the crowd show their merriment by dancing, hitting a pot with a hammer, blowing a horn, and drinking gin

A scene in a sitting room, a man in a fit of anger kicks over a chair and table set with tea; a pitcher, cups and saucers, tongs and other tableware are in flight or shattered on the floor. The man holds his wig in his left hand as a woman looks on with fear. Two cats fight in front of a fireplace above which hangs a seascape with rough waters and lightening. On the back wall another painting shows a man standing over a woman

Inside a wig-maker's shop a bald man sitting on a stool squirms in agony as an elder woman attends to the wound on his forehead. Another man, standing to their right, looks on with visible discomfort. To their left is a table laid with scissors, razors, pliers, basin, small length of cloth and a bottle of 'Jalap.' A cat sits next to the cloth. In the background, on a wide window-sill, are wig-maker's tools and a wig in progress. Several finished wigs hang on pegs above the window. A number of boxes with the customers' names on them stand on a shelf above the door and an almanack hangs on the wall behind it. The door is wide open revealing in the background two men fighting a duel in front of the 'Crown' tavern, surrounded by several onlookers

Abstract:
In a London street, young boys inflict various forms of cruelty upon animals. In the centre, a boy (Tom Nero), identifiable by the badge on his shoulder as a pupil of St. Giles's Parish School, thrusts an arrow into a dog's anus; he ignores the offer of a large tart from a sympathetic young gentleman (said by Paulson to be a compliment to the young George III). To his left on the front of the balustrade, a boy draws a prophetic picture of Tom hanging from the gallows. Below Tom, another boy ties a bone to a dog's tail. In the lower left, a dog disembowels a cat. In the center foreground another boy kneels on the cobblestones, about to release a cock, as another boy prepares to a stick at it; the boy behind him holds a second cock. On the balustrade one boy holds a torch while his companion blinds a bird with a wire. Further to the left on the balustrade a group of boys laugh at the sight of two cats fight as they are hung by their tails from a gibbet-shaped lamp post. Above them a cat with a pair of wings tied to its back has been tossed out the attic window to see if it could fly
