A man stands facing the viewer, a pipe in his left hand and a paper labelled "London Gazette" sticking out of the pocket of his coat. He gleefully points with his left hand to two bottles set on a drop-leaf table beside him. The room is decorated with a marble pilaster with Ionic capital

Abstract:
"Three burlesqued and bare-legged peasants run (left to right) splashing through a bog. The leader is a man carrying on his pitchfork his (patched) breeches and a pair of 'Brouges' or clumsy shoes. He holds a large jug of 'Butter Milk' and under his arm is a bludgeon inscribed 'Sprig of Shillelah'. A woman follows, holding the end of his shirt, with a basket of 'Potatoes' [some falling out] on her head. Her petticoat is kilted up, and the third, a woman, clutches at the end of her shift, to extricate herself from the bog. All three smoke short pipes. The man wears a small wig on unkempt hair which projects through his hat. In the middle distance (left) a woman has fallen, spilling the contents of a large basket of 'Turf', strapped to her back. In the background (right) huntsmen are galloping from rising ground (right) into the bog, in which dogs and horses are partly submerged; geese fly up. On the left is a thatched cabin, and there is a mountainous skyline. In the foreground is a strip of water with three huge frogs."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Jack Frost, bestriding a bear (left), hurls snowballs at Napoleon, who tries to escape, trudging through snow with skates attached to his spurred and tasselled Hessians. Two strike his back, another has knocked off his plumed bicorne. He holds his nose, looking over his shoulder to say: "By gar--Monsieur Frost this is a much colder Reception than I expected I never experianced such a pelting before--I find I must take care of my Nose as well as my Toes--Pray forgive me this time and I swear by --St Dennis never to enter your -- dominion again." From the angry bear's nostrils issues 'a Northern blast' which strikes Napoleon's posterior; its hindquarters are inscribed 'Northern Bear Ham'. Jack Frost is naked, except for large skates, emaciated, and old, with a wide gap-toothed mouth, beard, and huge moustache. From each glaring eyeball slants a searchlight inscribed 'Northern lights'. In each bony hand is a big 'Snow ball', and another flies through the air. He says: "What--Master Boney--have I caught You at last lie--teach you Russian fare--take that and that as a relish and digest it." In the middle distance the 'Empr Alexander' stands with legs astride on a mound of snow pointing derisively at Napoleon. He wears cocked hat, cloak, and fur-topped boots with huge curving toes, like those of three 'Cossacks' who watch Napoleon from a mound on the extreme left. They have spears but are smoking and one is seated; they grin, content to wait their time. Behind Alexander the spears and fur-capped heads of an army project above the snow, in front of the walls of 'Petersbourgh'. On the extreme right and nearer the foreground are French soldiers crouching in the snow and warming their hands at a fire of sticks inscribed 'Moscow'; fragments of gutted buildings are behind them. The sky is covered with slanting lines indicating a blizzard blowing against Napoleon and the French."--British Museum online catalogue
