Two people seated in the minute body of a gig which is poised on springs high above the spider-like wheels. The two horses are tandem, a groom rides the leader (left) as postilion. Both occupants wear the high-crowned hats and boots with deep tops which had just become fashionable, see BMSat 5931. Beside the gig a man rides a small horse, looking up at the driver; he also wears one of the new hats, and carries a grotesquely knotted stick. On the panel of the gig is a coronet. 11 August 1781
