A corner of a stone building, the "Political House that Jack Built" is on the left, showing a large open window above a closed door. From a projecting beam (right) hangs a sign: 'the Crown'. King George IV sits astride the sign, and has almost severed the beam on which he sits, using a saw inscribed 'Self'. He wears a shirt with rolled-up sleeves, spurred jackboots, and a carpenter's cap. Within the room above the door five ministers drink and sing: "God save Great George, Our King." Lord Chancellor Eldon is in the center, flanked by (left to right): Castlereagh, with a scourge and blunderbuss, (?) Harrowby, Liverpool, and Sidmouth with a clyster-pipe. On the door below is a placard: 'Notice of Ejectment--as the Premises are undergoing a Thorough Repair.' Above the door is an irradiated cap of Liberty.
