Abstract:
"Fifteen figures arranged in two rows, each with a caption: the words of the speaker etched below the name of his country. (1) A white-robed figure, with hands spread deprecatingly: 'Egypt. His extortions are abominable, I wish he was made a Mummy of!' [cf. British Museum Satires No. 9352, &c.]. (2) A man, wearing a night-cap and a dressing-gown over Spanish dress, yawns and stretches: 'Spain. Bless me what a long time I've been taking & been dreaming about going to Peru.' (3) A man, wearing a bag-wig and old-fashioned dress, bows obsequiously: 'Italy. I bow to him with submissive respect.' (4) A Chinese in trousers stands impassively in profile: 'China Is not this Boonapar a famous robber.' (5) A man with a long pipe and gouty legs: 'Germany [Austria] I mean a great deal when I shake my head.' (6) A military officer puts a finger to his closed lips: 'Prussia. Mum.' (7) A post-boy, wearing jack-boots and heavily shackled, waves a bonnet rouge: 'France. Long live the Emperor - Vive La Liberté'!! (8) A Turk wearing a jewelled turban: 'Turkey. I quake whenever his name is mentioned.' (9) A man wearing fur cap, fur cloak, and fur-trimmed boots folds his arms: 'Russia I curse him one moment and am friends with him the next.' (10) An elderly military officer, wearing a long sword, stands hands on hips: 'Sweeden. Who's afraid!!' (11) 'A fat Dutch burgher, smoking a pipe, scowls reflectively: 'Holland For my part I dont know what to make of him.' (12) A man wearing a short jacket, trousers, and a long pigtail runs to the right.: 'Portugal I'm Off.' (13) A quaker stands full face with folded hands: 'America. Verily the Spirit doth move me to shake hands.' (14) An Oriental, wearing a turban and long trousers, stands full face: 'Assia I beg he may be kept at a distance.' (15) John Bull, a fat 'cit', stands with his hands in his waistcoat pockets, smiling dubiously: 'England I laugh at him, and defy him. but still I dont much like him'."--British Museum online catalogue
