"The Englishman, grossly obese, walks from the door of the inn (left) supporting his paunch on a wheelbarrow which the cook of British Museum satire no. 12361 helps to drag, exhausted by the effort, and mopping his face with his cap. A plank leads from the quayside to a packet-boat, the stern of which appears below, empty except for one expectant sailor. Another sailor's hand appears by the plank, ready to assist the embarkation. The sign of the inn is not depicted, the window flap hangs down. The second cook stands in the courtyard, offering food to a gorged cat on the roof."--British Museum online catalogue
