"A pugilistic encounter between two old market-women who are Eldon (left) and Wellington (right). Eldon is much the stouter and more purposeful, facing his enemy grimly and aggressively. He has a basket of oranges (emblem of the Orange Lodges) beside him, and wears a flat wide-brimmed hat. Wellington wears a soldier's coat over his skirt and apron (as beggar-women or basket-women often did, cf. (e.g.) BM Satires No. 15763). His profile is apprehensive, his hands loosely closed and on the defensive. Each has a bottle-holder; that of Eldon is John Bull, a stout yokel who puts his hand on his principal's bulging posterior, saying, 'Welldone--old Mother Baggs--you have got the best bottom after all. see what it is to have a good Constitution--give it her--she has'ent got the Mounshears to deal with now.' Wellington's supporter is a bare-legged Irish ragamuffin with a pipe thrust in his little hat. He capers excitedly, putting a hand on Wellington's back to push him forward, saying, 'Murder ye ould cat kape your fists Tight--or you'I let the Ould Orange-Woman bate ye clane.' In the background is a freely sketched crowd of spectators, women of St. Giles or Billingsgate. Two only are characterized: a fat woman with parson's wig and bands, with a basket of 'Oxford Sauce' on her head, looks over her shoulder at a handsome young virago (Peel), who is shouting at her, to say: 'Come give us none of your Jaw--Mother peel'."--British Museum online catalogue

"John Nash, misery personified, sits on the ground, in profile to the left, hands on knees, chin close to his hands; a harrow with huge spikes rests on his shoulders, and is thus tilted up, while a horse, its head cut off by the left margin, drags it along.

Abstract:
"Satire on Grand Tourists: scene outside an inn in France, with a sign reading "Poste Royale", where a young English gentleman, holding a copy of "[Lord] Chesterfield's Letters", arrives with his tutor. He is greeted by the smiling inkeeper wearing large wooden shoes stuffed with wool who holds out a menu; beside the innkeeper a positllion holding a whip climbs out of his large boots On the right, a fat servant carries two bottles of wine and four books; behind him another postillion drives the coach with two horses towards the right. In the background, a woman can be seen through the archway of the inn standing on a bench and reaching up to clip the wings of a cockerel; a door beside the arch, lettered, "Bon Chere icy chez La Grenouille / Traiteur", is open to reveal a ladder up which a cook has climbed in order to catch three cats running along a wall; he holds a knife in his hand. An image of a young Bacchus seated on a barrel has been chalked on the wall; a dog jumps up towards it. Beyond the wall is the roof of a cottage, a church tower and a cottage with a niche with a statue of a saint."--British Museum online catalogue
