"A gaily-dressed young woman sculling a naval officer who sits in the stern, holding his cane in the water and looking through a single eye-glass at a swan accompanied by a cygnet. A King Charles dog puts its paws on the edge of the boat and looks at the swan. The admiral is in naval uniform with a pigtail queue. The lady wears a feathered hat tilted forward on her high-dressed hair and a low-cut bodice; on the stern of the boat is a design of a cupid riding on a dolphin. The water winds among lawns, trees, and bushes. In the middle distance two ladies are fishing; one holds a rod over the water, the other, seated beside her, holds up a fish."--British Museum online catalogue

"Canning and Eldon, both in shirt-sleeves and about equally matched, face each other in a small boat: Cabinet. Cock Boat. The very ornate boat resembles a Canadian canoe in general shape; the paddles go through big apertures encircled by the points of a star; that of Canning is Deplomatic Sagacity; Eldon uses the mace, which is inscribed Pelf Patronage Parsimony [see British Museum Satires No. 15139]. At each end of the boat is a figure-head, one of the supporters of the Royal Arms, each with a flag-staff set in its head. Behind Canning (left) is the Unicorn; his flag Catholic Supremacy. The Lion is behind Eldon (right), with the flag of Protestant Ascendancy. Canning: I shall be too much for you you are too slow in your Motions. Eldon : I doubt it! The Purse of the Great Seal hangs over the boat beside Eldon, who wears wig and bands. On the extreme right the sun rises (or sets)--it irradiates the sky behind Eldon."--British Museum online catalogue
