Abstract:
"Five women, fashionably dressed, are grouped by a round table (right). Three play cards, one (right) weeps, reading a book: 'Excessive Sensibility a Novel in 21 Volumes by the Auth[or] of Tears & Sighs / Chap 1st'. A fifth stands with her back to the others, drinking, a decanter in her right hand. A plainly dressed man wearing top-boots, and hat in hand, sits (left) in profile to the right regarding the women with consternation. Next him the husband, fashionably dressed but clumsy, sits with hands on knees, frowning angrily. The former says: "Why Jack you terrible Turk I could not believe it if I had not seen it--Five Wives at once--why you will get yourself into a pretty scrape! what could induce you to commit such a rash action." The other answers: "Why you must know Uncle--out of so many I was in hopes to have met with a Good One--but by St Patrick. I have been taken in--!!"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"Two designs placed side by side, the title so arranged that 'The Contrast' applies to both, the first four and last two words to the two designs respectively. [1] A scene outside Jaffa where the French flag flies from a fort on a rock at whose base are hospital tents (left), in which the sick can be seen. In the foreground Napoleon (a poor portrait) points with an imperious gesture to a bottle of 'Opium' in the hand of a distressed doctor in civilian dress. He says: "Don't talk to me of Humanity & the feelings of a generous heart, I say Poison those Sick dogs they are a burthen to me, & can no longer fight my Battles!!! I say destroy them - As for those Turks, them up in the Garrison, turn all the Guns upon them, Men, Women, & Children & blow them to atoms, they are too bold & resolute for me to suffer them to live, they are in my Way." In the middle distance (left) is a body of Turks, their arms tied behind them, guarded by a French soldier who points at Napoleon. Behind Napoleon two French officers exchange glances, acutely dismayed at the orders." ... [2] Two black soldiers, in neat regimentals, prepare to kill three haggard French officers. One raises an axe to smite a bound prisoner. Two British officers (left) interpose with outstretched arms; one says: "We know they are our Enemies, & yours, & the Enemies of all Mankind, nevertheless Humanity is so strongly planted in the Breast of an Englisman [sic], that he can become an humble beggar, for the lives, even of his enemies, when they are subdued." The other adds: "A mercy unexpected, undeserved surprises more."--British Museum online catalogue
