"A sailor (left), who grins over his shoulder at the spectator, sits on a corded sea-chest pointing at his prize-money which is heaped up on a larger chest in front of him, coins spilling over the top of the chest. He is gaily dressed, wearing a hat with a ribbon favour, long pig-tail, striped trousers; a bunch of seals dangles from his waistcoat; a spotted handkerchief hangs from his jacket pocket. His smoking pipe lies on the ground behind him. In his right hand is a sheaf of papers inscribed 'List of Prizes taken at the [ ?] Huntinna St Eustatia'. Five money-sacks stand on the chest, three being inscribed respectively '£10,000', 'Spanish Dollars', and '£5,000'; a sixth lies open with coins issuing from it. Four wine-bottles, one labelled 'Made[ira]', and a glass also stand on the chest. Through an open sash-window is seen a man-of-war whose sails are being lowered. Pinned to the wall (left) behind the sailor's head is a broadside ballad headed by an oval bust portrait of George III and the words 'God save the King'; below the verses is a crown."--British Museum online catalogue
