Abstract:
"A scene at Wapping, outside a corner-house on the river inscribed 'Dock Head'. Prostitutes look from an open window projecting into the street and on the street level. Beside it is a bill: 'Dr Leak's Pills one smal Pill is a Dose.' A negro sailor walks in at the door, his arm round a brown-skinned girl. Above the door: 'Wapping Bagnio Hot Baths'. On the door-post: 'Neat Wines.' By the door hangs a bird in a cage. Three men stand on the pavement gazing in at the window, where one of the four smiling women is a negress. They are a Chinese, a Dutchman with a long pipe and a dog, and a lean foppish Frenchman, whose long pigtail is pulled by a dwarfish boy. A brown-skinned child sleeps on the pavement. On the right a ship lies against the quay where a sailor and a woman stand, the latter smoking a pipe. ..."--British Museum online catalogue

"The Russian bear (left), standing on its hindlegs on the edge of a narrow stream, 'The Vistula', holds Napoleon in its forepaws. Talleyrand steps out of the stream on to the further bank (right), blowing a trumpet from which issues a billowing cloud on which he writes a dispatch with a large pen. The upper waters of the stream are inscribed 'The Bug'; a placard on a post in the water is inscribed: 'Hic Jacet - Snug - in the Bug - several thousand of the Great Nation.' The bear says: "Hush a bye! Hush a bye! take it all quietly - you'll soon find yourself as Snug as a Bug in a Rugg". Napoleon, gesticulating wildly towards Talleyrand, says: "Oh D----n the bug. I wish I had never seen it. My Dear Talley - dont tell my faithfull subjects the true state of my Situation - any thing but the truth my Dear Tally. Oh this cursed Russian Bear how close he hug me." Talleyrand, his back to his master, answers, "Leave me alone for a Bulletin." Two clouds issue from his trumpet: the smaller and darker rises: '7,000 Prisoners, 3000 drowned, 12 Eagles taken, 6,000[?] Killed.' The other cloud descends, on it Talleyrand has written, his pen by the final word: 'For Paris Grand Bulletin The august Emperor of the great Nation, informs his faithfull and beloved Subjects, that having performed Wonders on the banks of the Bug. he has now closed a glorious campaign for the season, and retired with Ease and Comfort into Winter Quarters - '. He wears a mitre, bag-wig, a gown over his suit kilted up by a girdle from which swings a rosary and an ink-pot resembling a bowl for holy water. His right leg has a bowed shin, and his shoe is raised on blocks. On the ground by the bear are Napoleon's large bicorne and sword. Behind (left) is part of the façade of a 'State Prison', surmounted by a Russian Eagle, and inscribed 'Prisoners of War.' The races of French prisoners are pressed against heavily barred windows. In the background is a large encampment."--British Museum online catalogue
