A scene at Cheltenham

Print shows King George III standing in profile to the left under the Cheltenham pump, receiving in his mouth the copious stream which is produced by two men (left) who stand on a bench, pumping vigorously; they have taken off their coats and say "Zoons a will suke en Dry". The King's hands are crossed on his breast, his hat lies at his feet. The Queen pulls his coat-tails to induce him to stop drinking. Two princesses stand behind her (right) holding glasses; one says to the other: "My Papa will leave none for us". Two yokels in smock-frocks stand gaping on the extreme right; they say "Laird Laird". On the summit of the pump is a cartouche inscribed 'Cheltenham' and surmounted by a crown. Cf. British Museum catalog.
