"Lansdowne (left) in 'profil perdu', stoops forward, encouraging a dog with the head of Jekyll to bark at a bust of Pitt; the word Bow issues from the mouth of Jekyll, who wears a legal wig, bands, and gown. The bust stands on the ground framed in a leafy arbour, and regards Jekyll serenely, a contrast with the latter's impudent and insignificant profile.

"Troops, crowded in carts, &c, approach Portsmouth, where distant ships are at anchor. In the foreground are country carts drawn by soldiers at a gallop. Other soldiers are in and on a coach, the 'Portsmouth Fly'; a drum and fife are being played on the roof; large flags float from the windows. This is followed by officers in a perch phaeton. Young women take leave of soldiers. A drummer gallops on a donkey with a young bandsman in each pannier. In the middle distance, besides other vehicles, are two of the new four-horsed conveyances for soldiers, who sit as in an Irish jaunting-car, see BMSat 9238. In the foreground (right) is the corner of a small thatched ale-house, 'The Jolly Soldier'. An old soldier with a wooden leg sits fiddling at the door, while the host and his family wave farewell."--British Museum online catalogue
