Churchill (right) in the form of a huge bear, wearing clerical neck-bands, as in Hogarth's "The Bruiser", turns a snarling fiercely at a small dog (Hogarth) like his Trump. The bear has one raised paw and the other rests on a piece of paper entitled "Epistle to Wm. Hogarth", beside a pen and ink well. The dog barks back at the bear, his front paws rest on an artist's palette with the words "Line of beauty" written across it. Etching in the left background, are the words "Pannel Painting."

Charles Churchill in the form of a huge bear (right, as in Hogarth's print The Bruiser) and wearing clerical neckbands, looks down, mouth agap, at a little dog (left) who snarls back. The dog personifies Hogarth as in his own print "Trump"; his paws rest on a artist's palette inscribed "Line of beauty". The bear's paw rests on a sheet inscribed "Epistle to Wm. Hogarth," the poem which Churchill published in response to Hogarth's sketch of Wilkes described as "John Wilkes, Esqr."
