- Abstract:
- "In the centre of the design a double pillory is raised on a post, the feet of two victims resting on a beam inscribed 'Medical Board'. Both are confined at neck and wrists; a broad scroll inscribed 'Look Ass Peeps' [Lucas Pepys] hangs between them; one (left), in quasi-military dress, is evidently Thomas Keate, the Surgeon-General; the other, dressed as an old-fashioned physician, is Pepys. Below the pillory is a man on a braying ass, looking up triumphantly at its occupants; he is 'A Jacks-son', evidently Robert Jackson, M.D. In the foreground are four dead or dying soldiers (in neat and spotless uniform), 'Sent home for Inspection'; a man supports the head of one, another clutches a bundle inscribed '48 Regiment'. The flat grass on which they lie is flanked by medical stores, &c. On the left the gable-end of a rustic inn projects into the design with a sign on which is a goose [Chatham, see British Museum Satires Nos. 11549, 11564]; over the door is a placard: 'A Goose Cured here'. Beside it are a cask of 'Porter' and a large chest marked with a broad arrow and inscribed 'Medical Store[s] Inspectors Hospital Walcheren'; on this stand a basket of 'Surgeons Instruments' and a canister of 'Vitriol'; beside it is a canister inscribed 'Powder of Rotten Post'. Other stores are: bales of 'Cobwebs' and 'Oak Bark'; a cask inscribed 'Tincture of Arsenic Walcheren'; an open medicine-chest inscribed 'Candle Snuff & Cobwebs, charms for the Cure of Agues'; bottles of 'Gin'; a jar of 'James's Powder', and a bowl of 'Opium'. On the opposite side of the design are many closely stacked barrels, all inscribed 'TK' [Thomas Keate], of 'Port', 'Claret', and 'Burgundy', inscribed 'For the Hospital', 'For Home Consumption', and 'York Hospital'. In front of these is a large 'Champaign Chest' inscribed 'Chelsea Hospita[l]', and a turtle inscribed 'T K'."--British Museum online catalogue
