An illustration from London Magazine. Several men including one with a wooden leg sit or stand atop pilings at quayside. A tavern or inn with a glass and bottle on signboard is to the left of the image. In the foreground men fall off a gangplank attempting to get into boats, while a crowd of onlookers fills the background
A grotesque bearded head attached to the body of a woman faces right under an enormous coiffure. Within the hair a scene in the top panel depicts a masquerade in a garden setting. A lower scene shows boats and barges, a reference to the first English regatta held 23 June 1775
