The sailor wears a round hat, short jacket, knotted handkerchief, striped trousers and buckled shoes. On his cheek is a round black patch. At his elbow is a punch-bowl. He says: "Come my Hearty - mind what you are at - make good use of your Eyes - you know the terms on which I set sail - ten golden quids if you come to Anchor in ten minutes - but a minute beyond time, and you have but five you know, so heave a head do you hear - and lay in plenty of the true-blue about the jacket, - and Harkee Young-one - don't forget the beauty spot on the lar-board side of my Cheek - Poll calls it her hearts delight, - well this same painting is a fine knack to be sure - but I am rather puzzled about one thing - If you can get my hulk, head, and stern into that there little bit of ivory - d------n me, but I think you would be able to tow a seventy-four through one of the cock boat Arches of London Bridge"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Napoleon bestraddles the globe, seated at the Pole, about half of it being between his legs; countries are marked, but without regard to geography. A little figure looks from behind the globe (right) below the conqueror's left toe; his left hand is placed on 'Old England', and he raises a sabre menacingly. Napoleon, a fine figure, wearing an enormous cocked hat, a sabre in his right hand, looks down at the little man, his left arm extended; he says: "Ah, who is it dares interupt me in my Progress." The little fellow answers: "Why 'tis I little Johnny Bull Protecting a little spot I clap my hand on, and d-n. me if you come any Farther that's all." He is a 'cit' with an ill-fitting wig. 'France' lies between 'Switzerland', on which Napoleon's right foot rests, and 'Itali' [north of 'England'], on which is his left leg."--British Museum online catalogue
