"A fat old woman leans back in an armchair, her left leg thrust forward. She pulls up her petticoat to display the bare leg, on which is a running sore, to an aged doctor (right), who bends over it, holding his spectacles to his eyes. Her desperate plight is apparent in the fixed stare with which she looks up and to the right. By her side (left) is a bottle and glass. A pretty young courtesan, resting her left arm on the back of the chair, leans forward to hold a candle above the leg."--British Museum online catalogue, description of reissued state

Abstract:
A crowd of visitors on the right are shown approaching the military camps at Coxheath indicated on the left with tents and cannon. The crowd, preceded by a barking dog, is chiefly comprised of women, led by a prostitute in pseudo-military garb who is carried on the shoulders of a soldier. Behind her a young woman leads a fat military officer wearing a large wig and carrying his sword in his hand. Following are two elderly women, one with a large muff, the other holding crutches and seated in a wheelbarrow pushed by an old man. Other women and soldiers make up the crowd. In the left foreground are three cannons, inscribed "9 P.", "9 Pounder", and "G.R. 12", the latter being admired by several women
