Abstract:
"The Tsar and his sister walking arm-in-arm are stopped by a coarse-looking woman (right) who flings her arms round his neck and kisses him avidly, while a yokel (left) takes the hand of the Grand Duchess. The woman exclaims to a fat friend (right), who watches with a broad grin: "There Sal, I can boast of what none of the Bitches of Billinsgate can, having kissed the Kings Emperor of all the Russian Bears, & he is the sweetest modestest mildest Gentleman I ever Kissed in all my life." The countryman wears a short smock with breeches and wrinkled gaiters, and has the coarse carbuncled features of a John Bull in these prints. He says, grinning: "Dang it when I goes back & tells The folks in our Village of this, Law how they will envy I, ha ha!" The Tsar and his sister smile amiably. Behind (left), another woman runs after a bearded Cossack eager to kiss him. There is a landscape background, probably indicating Hyde Park, cf.

Abstract:
"The Prince of Orange (left), dressed like a Dutchman in (English) caricature, kneels with arms extended imploringly at the feet of Princess Charlotte (a good portrait). He wears Apollo's wreath, decorated with small oranges, before him is his clumsy flower-pot hat, containing a paper: 'Rules for the game of ye Dutch Pins' (ninepins); beside this is a Jews' harp, a degraded form of Apollo's lyre. His breeches are enormously bulky, and a tobacco-pipe projects from a pocket. He sings: "Lovely Maid, assuage my Anguish! At your feet your true love sighs; Do not let your Dutchman languish, If you frown, alas he dies!" She answers, pointing to his breeches: "From what I feel, and what I see, There's nought about you that bewitches; Unless indeed a charm may be In a Dutchman's great big breeches!!!" She stands beside a table (right) at which she has been sitting. On this are her painting materials, pencil, brushes, cakes of water-colour, porcelain palette, and jar of water, with an open box. Her painting is on a sloping board: a fat Dutchman trudges off, a bundle at his back, in the direction of a sign-post pointing 'To Holland'; he grasps his head despairingly. Behind the Prince a French window with draped curtains gives on to a small balcony. By the window are flowering plants in a jardinière; a sofa stands against the wall; a patterned carpet completes the design."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Lady Perceval sits at an ornate writing-table, pen in hand. A serpent issues from her breast, coils round her arm, and darts its fang at the tip of her pen. She frowns meditatively, saying, "Now then for something strong but not libellous, I hate half measures we must rush upon the enemy--suprise [sic], astound him--and unhorse him by Terror--John Bull have at you! I'll open your eyes--." The table is littered with papers and books; some are docketed: 'For the Star', 'To the Editor of the Star', 'For the News', 'Extracts from the Book', one is 'Copy', a book is 'Politicks', and a large paper is displayed: 'Select Scraps from Shakespeare--with my own comments "Some achieve greatness "some have greatness thrust upon them .... Querie was this not the case with Nunky [Spencer Perceval], why not happen .... Son--.' Other papers and books lie on the floor: newspapers are 'The News' and 'The Star', a paper is headed 'Memorandums Billy Austin [see British Museum Satires No. 12027]--the Will--' Books are 'Life of Lord Nelson', 'A very Woman by Massinger', 'Machiavael', 'Johnson', 'Indiscretion a Novel', 'Don Quixote'. On the left John Mitford, identified by a letter in his coat-pocket 'To John Mit--', stands facing the wall, and hanging one picture over another: he places a view of a country inn, 'The Tigers Head' above one of '[War]burton's Mad House', saying, "Come this is a prettier picture than the other [left] shall catch some fish in this neighbourhood." He is fashionably dressed, wearing Hessian boots. This picture is on the left of a row: a large picture of 'Alecto' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 7721), naked, wreathed in serpents, and brandishing scourge and fire-brand, with a background of flames hangs between three-quarter length portraits of 'Lady Douglas' and 'Lady A Hamilton'. The former covers her face with a tragic gesture; a dagger lies on a table beside her, she seems to contemplate suicide. The latter clasps her hands. Over the chimneypiece (right) is a three-quarter length portrait of 'Lord P . . . . val' concealing his face with his hat; below, and partly hiding the frame, is a statuette of a knight killing a dragon. On the chimney-piece there is also a bottle labelled 'Cephalic' (for diseases of the head). Papers are burning in the grate, one inscribed 'To[o] Libellous'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A sequel to British Museum Satires No. 10518, Gillray's 'Tiddy-Doll'. Napoleon, haggard and desperate, wearing tattered uniform without the former apron and sword, walks in profile to the left, carrying on his head a large tray. On this stand three gingerbread kings, burlesqued and mutilated, with two queens, a detached head (crowned), and (right) a pile of imperial emblems: crowns, mitre, sceptre, eagle, flag, &c. On the left a bonnet rouge hangs from a staff. In the middle stands an imperial eagle with a tricolour flag to which is tied a broom showing that the contents of the tray are for sale. Napoleon says (with grimly closed mouth): "Buy my Image! Here's my nice little Gingerbread Emperor & Kings Retail and for Exportation!" Behind him is a tumbledown thatched hovel; over an aperture where more gingerbread figures are displayed is a board: 'Tiddy-Doll Gingerbread Baker. NB Removed from Paris.' Above fly three of the (carrion) birds associated in these prints with Elba. Napoleon walks towards the sea; across the water (in France) tiny figures dance holding hands round a white flag inscribed 'Vivent les Bourbons' and topped by a fleur-de-lis. Behind them is the gable-end of a rustic inn: 'The Kings Head New Revived'. A fiddler capers on the edge of the cliff, watching Napoleon."--British Museum online catalogue and "One of many satires on Napoleon's banishment, see British Museum Satires No. 12229, &c., and on the fall of the Bonaparte kings, the 'Corsican Kinglings' of British Museum Satires No. 10518. The Kings must be Joseph, Louis, and Jérôme, see British Museum Satires No. 12225, the Queens either their wives or Napoleon's sisters; they symbolize the fall of the dynasty and no precise identification is necessary. The other kings of British Museum Satires No. 10518, those who owed their crowns to Napoleon, are absent; they are now his enemies."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue

He answers: "Bubbles Doctr "the earth hath bubbles, as the water hath ['Macbeth' I. iii]". I said it was all my eye." Behind him, on the chimney-piece, are a medicine-bottle and the bust of a lank-haired man wearing clerical bands. Three women stand behind Joanna's chair and in front of the curtains of a bed. One (left) holds out a lace cap, saying, "Doctor here is Shiloh's cap! bless me! why he has got a watery head! The next says: "Pray Doctr take care of the cawl if there is one."

She is grossly caricatured, with no resemblance to her portraits. She says, her head turned in profile to the right, and looking up with a triumphant smile: "Seeing is believing are you Now satisfied theres no [sic] Behold the Naked Truth most Learned Doctors." The doctors, who are crouching for closer inspection, say respectively: "It has a confounded strange appeara[nce]"; "I have my doubts"; "I cant help suspecting". Across her posteriors, defined by the pulling up of her petticoats, is engraved: 'Aged 64 Bladders of Blasphemy and Corruption Sealed up and Ready to Burst'. On the left is a large cradle of straw in which is seated a grotesque parson with horns projecting from his forehead; he holds a spoon and a bowl inscribed 'Caudle'; beside him is a paper: 'Cradle Hymns'. He leers cunningly. The cradle is inscribed 'Parson Towser' and 'Cradle for Joanna's Boar Pig'. A bird-like demon, grinning grotesquely, crouches on the head of the cradle. Against it lies a sack inscribed 'Donations Child Bed Linen for young Beelzebub'. Beside this lie a large coral and bells, pap-spoon, syringes, a little saucepan, &c. (presents from the faithful). Beside Johanna (right) is a chest (as in British Museum Satires No. 12334) inscribed 'Joanna Southcot's Prophecys' and 'Seals for Sale'. Other things beside it are a syringe inscribed 'infusion of Devils Dose', a paper inscribed 'Game of Humbug', a bowl of 'Cock Broth for Tom Tozer', and a decanter of 'Strong Water'. In the background, framed by large curtains, are a pulpit and a high latticed window, suggesting a chapel interior."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A (tricolour) top with the head of Napoleon spins, above the ground, savagely lashed by representatives of the Allies. His arms and his legs have already been severed from his body, now represented only by the madly spinning top. The most violently active is Blücher (left) stripped to the shirt, his coat and hat thrown on a drum on the extreme left, beside which lie his gloves and baton. Facing them is Wellington (right) equally effective, stern, but less savage. Full-face, and immediately behind the top is the Tsar, left hand on hip; his whip is inscribed 'Knout'. Between him and Wellington is Schwarzenberg (or Francis I). Bernadotte stands rather behind, between Blücher and Alexander, both hands on his hips; he holds a whip but is an amused spectator. Behind (right) the future King of Holland, crowned and wearing a star, but dressed in the breeches and jacket of the Dutchman in English caricature, sits under a tree on a cask of 'Hollands'. He watches delightedly, holding up one of Napoleon's legs inscribed 'United Netherlands'. The other leg, the thigh inscribed 'Swisslad, the boot Italy, lies near Blücher. At Wellington's feet is the right arm inscribed Spain & Portugal'; the left arm, inscribed 'Germany', is near Schwarzenberg. Napoleon's orb and (broken) sceptre lie near him, with some of the feathers from the large hat which is still on his head; his horrified and shrieking profile faces Blücher. In the background (left) is a road along which a carriage drives off, drawn by four galloping horses. It contains tiny figures: Marie Louise, crowned and looking behind her, and the little King of Rome also crowned and waving a sceptre. Two soldiers are on the box, two others sit behind. In the air behind Bernadotte a demon flies off to the left, with Joseph Bonaparte clutching his barbed tail. The latter, his crown flying off, looks back horrified, exclaiming "O! My poor Brother Nap oh oh! O!"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Three allied generals (left) hold the long handle of a shovel (peel) on which is a dish containing a tiny Napoleon. This they try to push into a baker's oven, but are hindered by the Austrian emperor, who holds the door of the oven, feigning to be trying to open it, but actually holding it at an angle which prevents the entry of the dish. The leading baker is Blücher, wearing an apron over his uniform, and without a hat; he looks sternly at Francis, saying, "Pull away Frank! you Keep us waiting!" General Mikhail Woronzoff, young and handsome, immediately behind Blücher, pushes hard, saying, "In with it Blücher." On the extreme left is Bernadotte, one hand on Woronzoff's shoulder, saying, "I tell you what, Woronzow, the Hinges want a little Russia Oil." Francis I, who like the others wears uniform with jack-boots, but has (baker's) over-sleeves to the elbow, says with an expression of startled alarm: "This door Sticks! I dont think I shall get it open?!" A weathercock surmounts his cocked hat. Wellington comes up (right), poking him in the back with his baker's tray on which are two pies. He says: "Shove alltogather [sic] Gentlemen! D-me shove door & all in!" His two pies are 'Soult Pie', with two spurred jack-booted legs projecting through the crust, and a pie with spires and other buildings, with a flag inscribed 'Bourdeaux'. He wears an apron and the order of the Golden Fleece as well as the star of the Garter. A fat, grotesque Dutchman sits on a flat cushion gazing up at the oven; he holds, but does not use, a pair of bellows. In his conical hat is a tobacco-pipe. The fire under the oven is filled with broken eagles and fragments of weapons. Among the debris in the recess for ashes is a crown. Above the oven is the inscription 'Allied Oven' surmounted by a crown and cross-bones. In the shadow formed by the half-open door, a skull (Death) waits to receive Napoleon, who lies on his back, kicking violently, and shouting "Murder! Murder!!"; he wears a large plumed bicorne. The stone wall in which the oven is built forms the background."--British Museum online catalogue

"An obese, elderly man, completely bald, sits in an arm-chair while a shopman pours oil from a bottle (straw-covered like a Chianti flask) on to his scalp, pressing down his head with the left hand. At his feet is a basin to receive the overflow. On the ground is a tall 'Fools Cap', with ears. Behind them stands a woman with a shock of red hair standing on end; she looks in horror at its reflection in a wall-mirror (right). On the wall above her head is a placard: 'Wonderful Discovery Carrotty or Grey Whiskers Changed to Black Brown or Blue--' High on the wall are shelves where bottles of the oil are closely ranged, one inscribed 'Wig Oil One Guinea Pr Bottle'. Behind the shopman (left) stands a big Ali Baba jar. Across the wall is a large placard inscribed: 'Macassar Oil, for the Growth of Hair is the finest invention ever known for encreasing hair on bald Places, Its virtues are pre-eminent for improving and beautifying the Hair of Ladies and Gentlemen--This invaluable Oil recommended on the basis of truth and experience is sold at One Guinea Pr Bottle by all the Perfumers and Medicine Venders in the Kingdom'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A sequence of four designs divided by intersecting lines. 'Spring'. An ugly tailor kneels with clasped hands at the feet of a plain woman, who holds up a fan encouragingly. A card of patterns hangs from his pocket. He says: "Oh you bewitching Angel behold at your feet a Swain as tender as a Veal Cutlet, You are the very Broad Cloth of perfection--have pity on me Adorable Mrs Griskin." She answers: "You enchanting Devil I do not know what to say to you. however Mr Thimble--that Mole between your eye-brows-- put me so much in mind of my poor departed Husband, that I think I cant refuse you." 'Summer'. The pair walk arm-in-arm in a landscape. He has become plump and wears trousers in place of the breeches worn in the other three designs. She flourishes a parasol. A dog follows. He says: "O thou wert born to please me My Life my only Dear." She answers: "Ay now you look a little stylish You are a--Charming Man who would not be married." 'Autumn'. They face each other defiantly, she holds a letter beginning 'Dear Mr Thimble,' and shrieks: "Here you feller here's a pretty commence. An interspected letter from one of your Naughty Women I knew you was going to Gallivant." He answers: "Well Ma'am, since you come for to go to that, who was it Galivanted with Mr Dip the Dyer to White conduit House last Sunday answer me that however I'll have a separation." 'Winter'. The pair are seated each side of a writing-table at which a lawyer sits reading a paper: 'Articles of Seperation between Jeremiah and Tabitha Thimble'.

Abstract:
"Joanna Southcott and Tozer drive before them a crowd of fat bishops, who flee to the right in wild confusion. She uses a birch-rod, he wields a flail, inscribed 'Revd Roger Towser's Flail'. Joanna holds by the toe the hindmost bishop, who wears a papal tiara. One has fallen to the ground, losing wig and crosier, another escapes over the former's body; two wear mitres. Several turn round to shriek defiance; one kicks out at Tozer, and uses his crosier as a weapon, another brandishes his wig. Joanna is plainly dressed, and wears a cap and spectacles; from her neck hangs a medallion inscribed 'I C' between two stars, with the words 'A Fac Simili of Joannas Seal'. Drapery streams behind her inscribed 'Elijah's Mantle' and 'Mohair'. Demons and serpents fly round the angry pair. She screams: "Lay it on hip and thigh Brave Towzer Smite the unbelievers--I put no more trust in Bishops as men, than I do in their Chariots and Horses, but my trust is in the Lord of Hosts." He shouts: "I'll well Dust their Woolsacks and make them drunk in my fury, I will bring down their strength to the earth." Behind them (left) is a chest (as in British Museum Satires No. 12333) inscribed 'Contents of the Sealing. The Sealed of the Lord--The Elect--To inherit the Tree of Life. To be made Heirs of God and Joint Heirs of [sic] with Jesus Christ--Joanna Southcott.' Beside it lie a goblet and 'Salver'. At her feet is an open book: 'Third Book of Wonders'. A serpent darts from left to right over the bishops."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Joanna Southcott, a stout termagant, stands in back view directed slightly to the right, gathering up her petticoats to display her person to three doctors who gaze closely at her. She is grossly caricatured, with no resemblance to her portraits. She says, her head turned in profile to the right, and looking up with a triumphant smile: "Seeing is believing are you Now satisfied theres no [sic] Behold the Naked Truth most Learned Doctors." The doctors, who are crouching for closer inspection, say respectively: "It has a confounded strange appeara[nce]"; "I have my doubts"; "I cant help suspecting". Across her posteriors, defined by the pulling up of her petticoats, is engraved: 'Aged 64 Bladders of Blasphemy and Corruption Sealed up and Ready to Burst'. On the left is a large cradle of straw in which is seated a grotesque parson with horns projecting from his forehead; he holds a spoon and a bowl inscribed 'Caudle'; beside him is a paper: 'Cradle Hymns'. He leers cunningly. The cradle is inscribed 'Parson Towser' and 'Cradle for Joanna's Boar Pig'. A bird-like demon, grinning grotesquely, crouches on the head of the cradle. Against it lies a sack inscribed 'Donations Child Bed Linen for young Beelzebub'. Beside this lie a large coral and bells, pap-spoon, syringes, a little saucepan, &c. (presents from the faithful). Beside Johanna (right) is a chest (as in British Museum Satires No. 12334) inscribed 'Joanna Southcot's Prophecys' and 'Seals for Sale'. Other things beside it are a syringe inscribed 'infusion of Devils Dose', a paper inscribed 'Game of Humbug', a bowl of 'Cock Broth for Tom Tozer', and a decanter of 'Strong Water'. In the background, framed by large curtains, are a pulpit and a high latticed window, suggesting a chapel interior."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A scene outside Bethlehem Hospital (Bedlam). Joanna Southcott, grotesquely pregnant, bestrides a dog wearing clerical gown and bands, its collar inscribed 'Tozer'. She and the dog advance menacingly towards a preaching boot-maker (left), who rants, standing on a stool. The dog barks savagely: "Bow woo woo"; she flourishes a broom and an open book: 'The Propheci[es] of Johanna Southcote', saying, "Begone Satan, or I shall Lay Thee." She is pushed forward by a dwarfish and hideous artisan, who has a pair of large snuffers thrust through his ragged coat. The bootmaker yells with outspread arms: "I say, your prophecies are d--d lies & Old Touzler the father of 'em I'll expose you I will you Old Brimstone you're a Cheat!--& a faggot! & a bag of Deceit! Out upon you! out upon you! you Blasphemous old Hag." A pair of Hessian boots dangles from his waist; he wears misshapen boots of similar type; a hammer is thrust through the belt of his leather apron, and he wears clerical bands and wide-brimmed hat. A little chimney-sweep cheers on the dog: "Well done Tozer." A grinning bystander shouts "well done Boots! close in upon her." A crowd of grinning spectators is freely sketched. On the extreme right three doctors stand in consultation, alarmed for their professional reputations. One, probably Reece, holding his cane to his face, says: "I'll pledge my reputation on her being so." Another, holding behind his back a bag of obstetrical instruments, says: "I think 'tis a cancer." He is Dr. John Sims, 'an accoucheur of great eminence'. The third asks: "Have you touch'd her Doctor." A fashionably dressed man watches them through an eye-glass, saying, "What crotchet have the Doctors got now!!!?" In the background is the façade of the rebuilt hospital, inscribed 'New Bethlehem 1814'."--British Museum online catalogue

"The Admiralty is represented by an open pavilion (right) on the shore, raised above the ground by two steps and having a pediment inscribed 'Adma--y'. Within, the Lords of the Admiralty are fast asleep, while Croker, Secretary to the Admiralty, angrily addresses a deputation of merchants approaching from the left He sits in an arm-chair, legs crossed, holding a paper headed 'List of Ships taken by the Americans'. The two leading petitioners (cf. British Museum Satires No. 12305) hold out respectively the 'Liverpool Petition' and 'Glasgow Petition', saying: "We humbly pray that you will let loose a few of those Bull dogs to protect our property from those American Curs who are Robbing us every day before our faces & as it is you alone who can put a stop to their career & save us from Ruin: we hope our prayers will be attended to." Croker wards them off with outstretched arm, shouting, "What the Devil are you Croaking about?!!! Why they have only taken 840 vessels lately & what is that, to such a great nation as this!" The Lords of the Admiralty, two civilians and two in naval uniform, are grouped round a circular table. A civilian reclines in an arm-chair, his gouty legs supported on a stool; he holds a paper: 'Taken last night 14 vessels this morng 20 vessels by ye Americans'. Beside them are fierce bulldogs, muzzled and heavily chained to staples, representing the Navy. On the wall are four pictures of naval battles: 'Shannon & Chesapeak' (see British Museum Satires No. 12080), 'Glorious 1st of June' (see British Museum Satires No. 8469, &c.), 'Nile' (see British Museum Satires No. 9250, &c.), 'Trafalgar' (see British Museum Satires No. 10442, &c.). From the architrave is festooned drapery inscribed: 'Good Merchants do not weep we are not dead but fast asleep.' Nelson, cloud-borne, looks down at the sleeping men, saying with arm extended, "Awake! Arise! or be for ever fallen." Two of the petitioners (left) talk together; one points angrily to the sea where a line of captured British ships is sailing off to the left ; nearer shore are the mast and spars of a sunken ship. He says: "See what they do! even in the Chaps of the Channel!!! Why! bye & bye they will be coming up the River: & taking all our Wherries & Funnies!!!" The other answers: "Faith if they do that will be Wherry Funny indeed"."--British Museum online catalogue

[4] The Regent sits in an arm-chair with a small table at his elbow on which is a tray with coffee-pot, &c.; McMahon (right) holds the back of his chair and looks over his shoulder at a sheet of patterns which he is inspecting. A man points to this sheet, a second stands by with more packets of patterns. ... [5] The Regent, in back view and chapeau-bras, runs on tiptoe towards a door in a garden wall that McMahon furtively holds open. Outside a fat man stands behind the back wheels of a carriage. Beside the Regent run Lord Yarmouth and another courtier. ... [6] The Regent's coach and pair drives at a gallop towards the gateway in the screen of Carlton House, the coachman lashing the horses; two footmen stand behind. In the foreground well-dressed spectators watch with amusement. ... [7] The Regent sits at a writing-table, looking round to the left. On a stool near him is a pair of stays; on a high wig-block (left) is his curled wig (cf. British Museum Satires No. 12184). On the wall is a large mirror, and against the wall stands a sofa. ... [8] The Regent's empty chair (left) stands at a dinner-table on which are decanters and glasses, some overturned or broken. Three guests lie under the table. The Prince, staggering tipsily, is being conducted from the room by McMahon and Yarmouth."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A sequence of eight scenes, arranged in two rows, each with an inscription below it. They represent a day spent by the Tsar while in London. [1] Alexander stands by a combined wash-stand and dressing-table (left) in a simply furnished bedroom. A valet helps him to put on his coat. ... [2] The Tsar walks rapidly (left to right), looking toward his sister the Grand Duchess of Oldenburg who takes his right arm. Her head is concealed by her bonnet. He holds the right hand of a little boy. He wears plain riding dress with cocked hat. Behind are trees and grass, with a low circular railing. ... [3] He stands under a tree writing in a notebook beside his sister who is talking to her son. In the middle distance soldiers are being drilled. ... [4] The Tsar and his sister stand together in a plainly furnished breakfast parlour. She unties her bonnet-strings, he takes off a glove. On a round table is a tray with coffee-pot, &c. ... [5] The pair, dressed as before, except that she holds a (closed) parasol, walk arm-in-arm (right to left) with the stern of a large ship in the dock immediately behind them. The bows of another ship are on the extreme left. They are accompanied or followed by a naval officer and two other men; a third addresses them, hat in hand. ... [6] Well-dressed spectators in the foreground cheer a departing carriage in which is the tiny figure of the Tsar, bowing hat in hand to a cheering crowd. Next him his sister's bonnet appears over the lowered roof of the carriage. Two officers sit on the back seat. There are no footmen. ... [7] The Tsar sits at a plain round table, writing. An open door shows an adjacent room where the Grand Duchess, reading some letter or document, sits beside a round table, laid for a meal. ... [8] The Tsar sits in a plain arm-chair beside a simple curtained bed (left); an attendant wearing a ribbon and holding a lighted candle is about to leave the small room. He wears uniform with ribbon and stars."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Queen Charlotte, an ugly old woman, sits enthroned on a dais (right), facing the Regent, who stands, wearing a royal robe over fantastic dress, with a turban-coronet surmounted by tall feathers. Three lean and ugly ladies-in-waiting stand round the dais, one proffering a huge box of 'Royal Snuff' [cf. British Museum Satires No. 12066], into which the Queen avidly dips her hand. The Regent asks: "Madam I am at a loss what to tell the allied-soveriegns, if they should make bold to ask how and where is my R--l Wife?" She answers, holding snuff to her nose, "I/ advise you my Son, to say as little as convenient, or d--n it; say I am your R--l Wife." The arms of her throne are formed of fanged snakes, and the dais is polygonal, with concave sides; the shape perhaps signifying the Queen's crabbedness. Behind the Regent stands McMahon, burlesqued and obsequious, but grinning slyly. Behind him and on the extreme left stands Lord Yarmouth, much amused, who asks: "Mc What say you to all this." McMahon: "The least I say my Lord the better"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Elba is represented by a flat-topped rock emerging from the sea only a little above the waves. Napoleon, much burlesqued, sits on a huge chamber-pot inscribed 'Imperial Throne'. He is ragged and bare-legged but wears a large (damaged) feathered bicorne; under his arm is a clyster-pipe. He turns his head in profile towards a demon rising from the sea (left) who holds out a large pistol, saying, "If! you have one Spark of Courage left! take this." Napoleon answers: "Perhaps I may if you'll take the flint out." The demon is nude and emaciated, with a spiky backbone; flame issues from his mouth. Behind Napoleon is the trunk of a decayed tree; on a branch hang (right) a (torn) pair of breeches and two tattered stockings. On the trunk, above Napoleon's head, a crow is spreadeagled to represent the imperial eagle; from its splayed legs hangs a gorget inscribed 'Imperiel Crow'. On the ground by Napoleon's throne are a large jar of 'Brimstone', an open book: 'A Triti [sic]--on the Itch! by Doctor Scratch', a small-tooth comb, a pipkin, and three medicine-bottles. On the right is a cannon made out of a jack-boot as in British Museum Satires No. 12255, and mounted on a gun-carriage. A pole topped by a turnip and two carrots has a little wooden sword tied to it, in imitation of a trophy. At its base lies a syringe."--British Museum online catalogue

He stands with fingers outspread, turning his head in profile to the right, his mouth wide open as if shrieking. The Cossack is a large figure, boldly drawn, wearing furred cap with aigrette and a sword. He is in a slightly crouching attitude, right leg extended and resting on the heel, left arm raised, as if dancing (cf. British Museum Satires No. 12046).

Abstract:
"A scene on the wild and rocky shore of Elba where Napoleon has just landed. He stands on the beach in deep dejection, in profile to the right, looking down, and saying: "Ah Woe is me seeing what I have and seeing what I see" ['Hamlet', III. i]. A dog befouls his boot. He is the centre of attraction to uncouth peasants who surround him, while many more approach through a defile in the mountains. A gross and hideous woman, holding a long tobacco-pipe, puts her hand on his shoulder, saying, "Come cheer up my little Nicky I'll be your Empress." A man beside her points to a ship at anchor; a boat filled with people is rowing out to her. The peasants all grin broadly. Near Napoleon (left) is seated a hideous, barelegged woman suckling an infant and smoking a long pipe. An almost naked child clings to her shoulders, putting out his tongue at Napoleon, as does a man standing just behind him. In the foreground, Napoleon's Mameluke, Ali, sits on the ground, beside a pile of portmanteaux inscribed 'Boneys Baggage'; he averts his head from the humiliating spectacle; his sabre lies beside him. An odd ape-like creature squats on the extreme left. On the extreme right a fisherman, staring over his shoulder at Napoleon, is about to jump ashore or push off in his boat. In the background two boats, one with a furled lateen sail, lie against the rocky coast."--British Museum online catalogue

"Napoleon is being drummed out of France. His right wrist is tied to the left wrist of Joseph Bonaparte; they are led forward, abjectly crouching, by Blücher, who holds the rope attached to the noose round Napoleon's neck. Napoleon has long ass's ears and wears a fool's cap inscribed 'Transported for Life'; his brother's cocked hat is inscribed 'Coward and Thief'. Both are assailed by serpentine monsters, barbed and scaly, which bite their legs, one inscribed 'Execration', the other 'Detestation'. Both wear uniform with the coats without epaulets and cut off at the waist. Blücher carries against his shoulder a long pole on which is a placard: 'Napolean, Late Emperor of the French, King of Italy Protecter of the Confederation of the Rhine, Grand Arbiter of the fate of Nations &c &c &c but now by the permission of the Allied Sovereigns, Exile in the Isle of Elba an Outcast from Society a fugitive a Vagabond. Yet this is the conceited Mortal who said, I have never been seduced by prosperity Adversity will not be able to overcome me--' Behind (left) the sovereigns of Europe gleefully dance in a ring, holding hands, round two flag-staffs from which float two large flags, the Bourbon flag dotted with fleur-de-lis and inscribed 'Rejoice O ye Kings Vive le Roi'; on the other is a flag with the double-headed eagle of Austria or Russia. The monarchs wear crowns; with them is the Pope, wearing his tiara. Next him is the corpulent Louis XVIII, one arm round the Pope's shoulder. Of the others only William of Holland can be identified with certainty; he wears bulky Dutch breeches with an ermine cloak. There are five others, three must be the Tsar, Emperor of Austria, King of Prussia. The others are probably Ferdinand of Spain and Ferdinand of Sicily. They sing: 'Now we are met a Jolly set in spite of Wind or Weather'. The three foreground figures are faced by a row of soldiers beating drums, with an officer raising his sword."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"In a fantastic procession Napoleon, much burlesqued and very thin, is dragged and pushed to the sea-shore, where (right) a boat manned by the Devil waits to take him to Elba. Round his neck is a rope dragged by two dwarfish and ragged Frenchmen (right): one is a ferocious little Jacobin, wearing a bonnet rouge, shouting "à bas le Tyran"; the other is a royalist, waving a hat in which is an olive-branch and ribbons inscribed 'Vivent les Bourbons', and shouting "Vive Louis XVIII." Napoleon weeps; he is assailed by a shower of missiles including cats and rats; a little demon capers on his head playing a fiddle. His hands are tied behind him and his coat is worn back to front; his feet project through his ragged boots, his great spurs are attached to the front of his leg above the instep. In his coat-pocket is a tiny King of Rome waving a rattle topped by a crown and shouting: "By gar Papa I have made von grand manœuvre in your Pocket!!" The chief motive force is the large 'Allied Broom' [according to Broadley, perhaps describing another state, the inscription is not 'Allied Broom' but 'Abdication'], with which Talleyrand, wearing a long gown and a high surgical shoe on his left foot, pushes Napoleon forward, pointing derisively and grinning delightedly; he says: "There he goes!!!" Behind Talleyrand are a small but elderly drummer and a ragged soldier playing a fife. The former wears in his cap a big white favour, and an inscription: 'Vive Louis XVIII'; the latter wears a laurel branch and a favour inscribed 'Vive Louis' in his bonnet rouge; from his mouth float the words: "He was whip'd & he w drum'd, He w [sic] drum'd out of the Regt, If ever he is a Soldier again, The Devil may be his Sergeant." Next, and on the extreme left, are two women flinging missiles at Napoleon, and shouting "a bas le Tyran--Down with the Tyrant--Vive Louis." On the extreme right is a shouting man holding up a tricolour flag, inscribed 'Vivent les Bourbons', its staff topped by a fleur-de-lis. On the ground (left) are Napoleon's epaulets with the scissors by which they have been cut from his coat, his sash and a small crown, perhaps that of the King of Rome. With these is a document: 'Done at Fontainebleau', across which lies a broken sword. On the horizon (right) is a rocky island from which rise large flames; these surround a tall gibbet with one dangling corpse and one empty noose; a ladder leans against it."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Napoleon, riding on an ass, with Marie Louise seated behind him, approaches the coast, with the 'Island of Elba' on the horizon (right). Just in front of him the King of Rome rides a mastiff inscribed 'Corsican Dog'; the child points with a switch at the island, and looks round at his father registering furious anger. Napoleon stares in agonized dismay, his hands raised in astonished protest. He wears a peaked cap inscribed 'Fools Cap'; the coat of his accustomed uniform, breeches unbuttoned at the knee, and wrinkled stocking showing bare leg. In front of him hangs a small sack: 'Bag of Brown Bread'. Marie Louise (see British Museum Satires No. 12218) is a dishevelled termagant, her left hand resting heavily on Napoleon's shoulder. She turns to thrash the donkey, her open mouth indicating an angry scream; she raises a bludgeon inscribed 'Baton Marechâle' [cf. No. 12088]. The boy wears a single garment over bare legs; a tight childish cap is tied to his head; from his waist hangs a dagger. The dog bays at the sight of the sea. Behind the ass walks an elderly and old-fashioned French post-boy, with heavy boots and whip and wearing a cocked hat. He clenches a fist, and extends a leg as if kicking, and screams: "Be gar you Cocquin now I shall drive my Old Friends and bonne Customers de English Vive Le Roi et le Poste Royale." Beside the ass's head is the upright of a gibbet-shaped sign-post inscribed 'Road to Elba'; from this hangs a noose. Two carrion birds fly past it towards Napoleon, one holding in its beak a paper: 'We Long to pick your Bones.' Over Elba is the customary flight of (carrion) birds. Against the shore lie two small boats, one has a mast; in the other sits a man."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Blücher stands on the shore, directed to the left, holding out at arm's length, and by the scruff of the neck, an animal (as much like a fox as a dog) with the head of Napoleon. The Emperor, in profile to the left, wears his petit chapeau, and gauntlet gloves, so that he has human hands. In a heap at Blücher's feet lie Napoleon's discarded uniform, crown, sceptre, sword, and an eagle. Along the shore runs an officer shouting in terror, his arms raised above his head. Near him a small boat with sail and oars lies at the edge of the water; a man climbs in with a sack on his shoulder inscribed '20.000 a year'. On the horizon is a small island, 'Island of Elba', above which fly carrion birds. On the right in the middle distance is another scene; a closely packed group of royalists and allied soldiers, in front of which stands Louis XVIII, with clasped hands, while a man places a crown on his head; Talleyrand, wearing a long gown, and with a surgical shoe on his right foot, obsequiously proffers a paper: 'A List of Ministers for your Majesty's Approbation'. Behind Talleyrand is a bishop with a crosier, and wearing a mitre which suggests a papal tiara. A woman holding up a laurel-wreath stands on the right. Behind these figures appear the heads of mounted soldiers and hands waving hats. The whole group is dominated by large white flags, the most prominent covered with fleur-de-lis and inscribed 'Restoration of Louis XVIII'. There is also an Austrian (or Russian) flag."--British Museum online catalogue

"A handsome strapping woman stands in the doorway of a brothel, a corner house of some size (right), tugging hard at the neck-cloth of a plainly dressed man, saying, "Wont you come, wont you come Mr Mug [a popular song, see British Museum Satires No. 11205]." He leans back, pushing against the door-post, and the woman's chest, trying to escape, and saying: "Avaunt thee Satan." Two laughing prostitutes lean against him (left), pushing their posteriors against his, to prevent his escape; one of them, for better purchase, presses her hands and a foot against the post of the sign-board before the door. On this is a pictorial sign: 'Cat and Bagpipes'. A dog rushes barking towards the struggle. Behind (left), across the street, is a row of old houses with casement windows; washing hangs from a projecting pole."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"A sequence of four designs divided by intersecting lines. 'Spring'. An ugly tailor kneels with clasped hands at the feet of a plain woman, who holds up a fan encouragingly. A card of patterns hangs from his pocket. He says: "Oh you bewitching Angel behold at your feet a Swain as tender as a Veal Cutlet, You are the very Broad Cloth of perfection--have pity on me Adorable Mrs Griskin." She answers: "You enchanting Devil I do not know what to say to you. however Mr Thimble--that Mole between your eye-brows-- put me so much in mind of my poor departed Husband, that I think I cant refuse you." 'Summer'. The pair walk arm-in-arm in a landscape. He has become plump and wears trousers in place of the breeches worn in the other three designs. She flourishes a parasol. A dog follows. He says: "O thou wert born to please me My Life my only Dear." She answers: "Ay now you look a little stylish You are a--Charming Man who would not be married." 'Autumn'. They face each other defiantly, she holds a letter beginning 'Dear Mr Thimble,' and shrieks: "Here you feller here's a pretty commence. An interspected letter from one of your Naughty Women I knew you was going to Gallivant." He answers: "Well Ma'am, since you come for to go to that, who was it Galivanted with Mr Dip the Dyer to White conduit House last Sunday answer me that however I'll have a separation." 'Winter'. The pair are seated each side of a writing-table at which a lawyer sits reading a paper: 'Articles of Seperation between Jeremiah and Tabitha Thimble'. Her hands are in a muff; she says with a painful smile: "I never felt myself so Comfortable in all my Life." He has grown thin and sits with clasped hands, saying, "O Blessed day for Jerry Thimble I hope to pass the next Year in Peace and quietness"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"Plate from the 'Scourge', viii, before p. 83. The Regent sits on a throne wearing academic cap, gown, and bands, and holding a huge birch-rod. Poised on his cap is a tiny merry-go-round; on the central post Punch, wearing a fool's cap, postures on one toe; on the rim are a tiny car, a donkey, goose, &c. His legs are wide apart and he has some resemblance to Henry VIII. He addresses Princess Charlotte who stands on the right, walking away but hindered by the Duke of York whom she tries to push aside. Beside the throne are Eldon and Ellenborough. Eldon (left), wears his Chancellor's wig and gown, a bag over his shoulder, his left hand on the right arm of the throne. Ellenborough sits at the Regent's left. A cross in the form of a pillory hangs from his neck; this is combined with a circle inscribed 'Croix de Pillory' forming a cross of Iona type. He holds a book: 'Magna Charta'. Beside him, and at the foot of the throne, are a birch-rod and a bag labelled 'Thumscrews & gags'. On a stool (left) next Eldon sits a fat and jovial bishop (the Archbishop of Canterbury) holding a bottle, and a large paper which he is reading: 'an old Song to a new Tune / I know my trade / Which tho it be made / By some a mighty serious / occupation, / I have found that to laugh / Is better by half / And more likely to get / a presentation / Tis all a mere hum / To stand preaching humdrum / And telling old Tales of / repentance / You had better burlesque / Both pulpit and desk / And turn up your female acquaintance / So bein ....' A roll of 'Old Songs Humorous Amorous &c', and a book (of old jests): 'Joe Miller', lie at his feet. Neglected behind his stool lies a book of 'Com[mon] Pray[er]'. The Regent says to his daughter: "I have sent for you my Dear Girl, to give you advice--for the future you must look up to me, as a pattern of Chastity, Sobriety, and Fidelity--I have just dismissed your late attendants, and intend now to teach you these virtues by my own precept and example--you will henceforward live under my roof--if you dont Obey--Mind--this!!" [his birch-rod]. Lord Eldon: "If you will allow me Sir! to send my wife to her, she will teach her how to Obey, I'll answer for it and that Scott free!!" Ellenborough: "Don't mind Brother Bags I'd have every body know what the Law can do it can decorate a Lord with the Croix de St Pillory, why not a Lady!" The Princess: "I wont stay Uncle--I won't be a Prisoner--I don't care for all the Bishops and Lords in the Kingdom, I'll put my self under the protection of some Coach'ee and drive to my Mother that I will!" The Duke of York answers: "No No my dear! must not run away from School Nuncky will pet it and Nurse it and Nunckys deary shant fret that it shant." He wears a military coat over a surplice, and a mitre projects from his coat-pocket. The Archbishop, turning from the conclave and absorbed in his song, says: "Fore George but this is a good one I must get into the right tune." The throne is an elaborate quasi-Chinese, quasi-Gothic erection, the top of the canopy with the Prince's feathers cut off by the upper margin, leaving the words 'Qui Pense'. The canopy is edged by bells. Below it are two winged cherubs' heads, both shedding tears. The arms are inscribed respectively 'Wisdom' and 'Activity', Eldon leaning against the former, Ellenborough against the latter. In a niche beneath the left arm are two bottles: 'Curr[açoa]' and 'Brandy'; the corresponding right niche is hidden by Ellenborough. On each side of the throne and above the heads of the two judges is an alcove containing large volumes: (left) 'Rule a Wife and [have a wife', John Fletcher's comedy, 1624, revived by Garrick]; 'Gullivers Travels'; 'Gack the Gian Killer' [sic]; 'Tom Thumb'; 'Family Quarrels a Novel in one Vol.' On the right: 'Little Red Riding Hood'; 'Law and Equity'; 'Duty of Jurymen by Veritas'; 'Life of John Bull'. These alcoves are flanked by large pictures partly cut off by the upper margin and concealed by labels enclosing speeches. On the left is 'Char[les the Se]cond', on the right 'Pri[nce Re]gent', a realistic rendering of his paunch and legs. At his feet is a scroll inscribed 'A Chines Bridge'. Against the portrait hangs a cage inscribed 'Sterne's Starling', containing a bird which puts its head through the bars, saying, "I can't get out."--British Museum online catalogue

He leans back, pushing against the door-post, and the woman's chest, trying to escape, and saying: "Avaunt thee Satan." Two laughing prostitutes lean against him (left), pushing their posteriors against his, to prevent his escape; one of them, for better purchase, presses her hands and a foot against the post of the sign-board before the door.

"A confused scene. A beadle, cane in hand, grasps the side of an overturned barrow, from which a basket, scales, and black puddings (coloured green) have fallen. A powerful young woman grasps his nose, and prepares to use her fist; an older woman clutches his back and belabours him with a basket. Both are shrieking termagants with bare breasts. A dog between the beadle's legs barks. The spectators, all close to the fray, are amused: a butcher, shouldering a tray of meat, stands outside his stall (left), which is immediately behind the combatants; from it dangle large joints and a carcase. A woman passes, pushing a barrow (left). A man's grinning face watches from the right. Behind (right) is a shop placarded 'Bob Giblet Poulterer', its ancient front hidden by bunches of hares and turkeys."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Men and women drink and fight in an open tent inscribed 'Shannon', where a large pot cooks on a brazier. A man's wooden leg plunges through the ice; a fat woman falls on her back on breaking ice, dragging down a man by his pigtail and terrifying and tripping up a fiddler and a raffish man in a furred and braided overcoat with a flamboyant top-hat. Customers (left) buy souvenirs from a printer who inks a block: behind is a press placarded 'The Thames Printing Office--Copper Plate printg done in the Best Style by J water-- Wagtail & Co.' There are two makeshift tents on the left: one placarded 'Gin and Gingerbread Sold here Wholesale'; the other: 'The Nelson'.
