Heading to printed verses. George IV has just come ashore, with a boat seen on the coast behind him and the royal yacht out in the water beyond; he carries a scepter in his right hand a large green bag on his back, the ties of which resemble antlers or horns above his head. A group of men with donkey ears greet him on the left; one man holds a flag showing two cows, and another a long document with the heading "Cows." Behind the King, on the right edge of the design, three men in uniform look on.
