Theodore Majocchi, with a villainous squint, grotesquely dressed as a dandy, stands full-face, holding out a large rolled document: 'Orders for the Milan Commission' and a large purse filled with gold coins: 'Secret Service Money'. He wears a small high-crowned hat: 'made by the Dandy Military Tailor in Pall Mall'. On the lapels of his coat are two portrait medallions, one of 'Mrs Q', the other of the 'K--g'. From a pocket hangs a long paper: 'Minutes of a conversation with a fat goodlooking Gentleman in Pall Mall on the Day George the III was Buried.' A long cylinder attached (?) to a coat-tail is inscribed 'Perjury . . . Per . . . Perjury'. He wears long trousers of hussar pattern, coat with small tails open over a tight white waistcoat: all his clothes are inscribed 'Government Stores'.
