A group of four persons -- the Princess of Wales, Earl of Bute, the Queen, and the King -- stand up and dance before five courtiers who sit, three along the wall on the left, two along the wall on the right. A bagpiper on the left plays, with the words in a bubble: "up stairs, down stairs in my Ladys Bed Chamber". The five courtiers, including a Scotchman, each have speech bubbles commenting on the scene with references to the Irish, the Scotch jig, Italian masters. A reversed copy of a print by "Paul Ogarth inv. et scratchavit."

"A farm-yard scene with Windsor Castle in the distance (right). In the centre four pigs feed at a trough; George III (right) and Queen Charlotte (left) stand on each side of it facing each other in profile, both slightly caricatured. At the King's feet are a bucket and a young pig. The Queen scatters grain to chickens and ducks. On the right a guardsman walks off carrying a bundle of turnips across his shoulder (see BMSat 6946). In the background (left) are haystacks and farm buildings; from one projects the sign of a royal crown inverted. A young woman (probably one of the princesses) advances with a basket (cf. BMSat 7897). On the right is a large placard on a post, 'Mantraps & Spring Guns'. Behind it are sheep."--British Museum catalogue

A scaffold extends across the foreground: Fox raises an axe to strike the neck of George III, whose head is held by Sheridan. The scaffold is surrounded by a dense and cheering mob. On the right is the gate of the 'Crown & Anchor' tavern, and from two projecting lamp-brackets swing the bodies of Queen Charlotte and Pitt. The houses of the Strand recede in perspective and terminate in Temple Bar, with two heads on spikes; clouds of smoke appear to come from burning houses east of Temple Bar. On the clouds a meretricious Liberty sits enthroned and triumphant.--British Museum catalogue
