Abstract:
"John Bull stands on a stone on tiptoe under a tree, a rope round his neck attached to a branch of the tree. He holds the rope with both hands, to prevent strangulation. On the right stands a Frenchman (France) holding out a leek to John Bull, between them is a stream or river. John Bull is a moderately stout man with a thick neck, wearing an ill-made bob-wig, not the characteristic John Bull of later satires, who had already appeared, see British Museum Satires Nos. 5611, 5612. The Frenchman is very thin, wearing a night-cap, a long pigtail queue, a ruffled shirt, and sabots stuffed with grass."--British Museum online catalogue
