"A circular design. George III (or Lord North) asleep on a sofa. He is in profile to the left, his head falling forwards, his right arm resting on the back of the sofa, his right leg extended on the sofa, his left leg on the ground. Behind the sofa stand two figures: Britannia (left) holding the cap of liberty on its staff, while her right hand rests on the back of the sofa. An oval medallion ornamented with a St. George's cross hangs from her wrist, probably respresenting the arms of the City of London. She says "Am I thus Protected?" A small man leans on the back of the sofa saying "Hollo Neighbour! what are you asleep"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Three soldiers stand at attention outside a tent (right) holding bayoneted muskets. Two wear high plumed busbies, the third a laced three-cornered hat. The officer facing them (left), holding a musket without a bayonet against his shoulder, gives the word of command. A stout man and a fat woman stand behind him. In the foreground (right) a drummer boy, sitting on the ground, one arm resting on his drum, puts a plumed busby on the head of a dog. Two rough-looking men wearing ribbon favours in their hats, probably intended for Gordon Rioters, point jeeringly at the three soldiers. In the background are trees."--British Museum online catalogue
