The Duke of Wellington stands at the centre, printed speech to the left: 'Come my old friend - don't take your / defeat so much to heart - you fought well! / & altho' you did throw a large paving Stone / at me, I -'. Eldon sits in a chair to the left, his left elbow resting on some books on a table, printed speech to his right: 'Poh! I threw no paving stone / at you - but you all like to have / a dash at the Old Chancellor!'. Lyndhurst in gown and wig enters from the right with printed speech to the right: 'There he is - just like / an old white Lion'. The artist's initials in monogram at lower left: 'HB'. Printed below the border at lower left: 'Printed by C. Motte, 23. Leicester Sq.'. Title and publisher's details printed below the border at the centre: 'THE OLD WHITE LION / Published by Thos.

George states that the publication date of '7 July 1829' is known from a handwritten inscription in pen and ink. A number '[3]' printed in square brackets in the right-hand margin on p. 176 relates to the handwritten number at upper right, both referencing the sequence of John Doyle's Political Sketches series.
