"Satire on the ambitions of European powers ranged against Maria Theresa; her clothing has been pulled off by her enemies. Frederick the Great lunges across her sofa groping under her shift and saying, 'I must have ye low Countries'; she responds, 'what will you leave me nothing', while Cardinal Fleury, crouching to the right, says 'let me handle this'. The King of Spain, slips out of a door to right, holding Maria Theresa's stays and sceptre, saying, 'do as you will now'. On the left, the Elector of Bavaria, placing a coronet on his head, holds up a stocking, 'I'm for ye Stocking'. George II sits to the left of the sofa, ignoring the proceedings, holding a paper saying, 'I have signd ye Neutrality' while Robert Walpole, in the shadows behind, says, 'damn ye house of Aust[ria]'."--British Museum online catalogue
