Published: James Aitken. Pitt, much caricatured, rides John Bull who walks (left to right) on his hands and feet. He flourishes a scourge with four lashes inscribed respectively: 'War. War. War.'; 'Tax Tax Tax'; 'Opression Opression'; 'Monopoly'. A heavy bit is in John Bull's mouth, and Pitt wears top-boots with vicious spurs. He says: "Ge up Johnny I'll stick Chose to you my Boy". From his coat-pocket protrudes a paper: 'The Art and mistery of managing Neddys'. His saddle and saddlecloth are inscribed: 'Princes D[ebts]', 'Princess', 'Tax on Hair Powde[r]', 'National Dbt', 'Imperial Loan', 'New Loan', 'Subsidies'. John Bull, a stout citizen with unkempt hair, says: "What, What, What, Maister Billy is it come to this you load me so with Taxes I must rise for want of Bread". The opening words and a milestone (left) 'To St Jamess', show that John Bull is also George III, though he has little resemblance to the King. In the background (right) a crowd of plainly-dressed and respectable men is being addressed by an orator. From the back of the sea of heads a few sticks or weapons are raised. A sign-post is inscribed 'St Georgs Fields'. Description from the British Museum.
