A hand-coloured plate of a gout ridden man seated in right side profile shouting with anger at his Irish footman who carries a sundial under his arm with a fob watch dangling from it. Having been asked to set the watch by the time on the sundial, the footman in an effort to be helpful, has instead transplanted the dial into the parlour for the master to do it himself. Inscribed in the plate: Pubd March 25 1808 by R Ackermann No 101 Strand / Woodward Del / Rowlandson scul
