Numbered "No. 1." at head of title.
Plate 1 of a series of satires on the speculations surrounding Chevalier d'Eon's sex.
D'Eon (right) wearing jack boots, astride on the back of Time holding his scythe and hour-glass, flies across the Channel towards four satyrs who hold out a British flag to receive him. The figures have numbers which refer to notes engraved beneath the print, 1, a nude satyr holding aloft the cap of liberty; 2, a nude satyr with legal wig and bands; 4, a satyr wearing a short coat; and 5, a satyr wearing a woman's low-cut bodice. No. 3, in back view, is a wine-merchant with wine bottles slung round his shoulders, he watches d'Eon through a telescope. The background is a view of the Channel, with two vessels, and Calais (right) in the distance.
