Légende
'France', 1755, showing a scene on the coast of France with troops boarding a ship to invade England. In the foreground a monk tests his axe and supervises a sledge containing various instruments of torture. To the right a group of ragged French soldiers roast frogs on a spit. A sign on a building advertises 'meagre soup' and some of the soldiers are clamouring around a flag which bears the message; Vengeance and the good beer and good beef of England.
