"Queen Caroline, stout and flamboyant, stands on the balcony over the porch of Wood's house in South Audley Street, looking down complacently with folded arms at the cheering crowd which fills the street. Alderman Wood stands cringingly behind her. A boy sits on a lamp-bracket, looking up, saying, "I've got a good place Jack I can see the whole of her." A sailor climbs one pillar of the porch, a little chimney-sweep swarms up the other. A man on horseback says: "Come down you Smutty." Another man shouts: "Clap my Boy! Clap her!!" A boy with newspapers inscribed 'Times', bawls: "Never Vas sich Times as these" [a catch-phrase]; cf. British Museum Satires No. 13729. The street is densely packed; spectators wave from the opposite windows and balcony. In the distance is a church, on the roof of which are spectators; one looks through a telescope, another asks "Can you see it." On the extreme right a parson on horseback is assailed with mud and brickbats."--British Museum online catalogue

"Spectators watch military manoeuvres in the air. The sky is covered with camps, marching men, and galloping cavalry, some are in military formation, others are single figures. There are tents and marquees with wings; a man beats a drum, three orientals wearing turbans race through the air beating cymbals. In the foreground (left) spectators on horseback look up in amazement, one horse throws its rider; geese, goslings, and pigs are under the horses' feet. On the right the King and Queen sit together on a bank; the King gazing through a small telescope, the Queen looking at him with delighted astonishment. In front of them is a gate over which two officers mounted on winged cannon are gracefully leaping, a third soars into the air."--British Museum online catalogue
