Hand-colored caricature: a rider on a white horse, a sprawled man, a fallen mount and a barking dog beside a stone wall.

The Overthrow of Dr. Slop

A hand-colored etching shows a caricatural accident beside a stone wall with a gateway: a rider on a white horse looks back as a sprawled man lies on the road beside a fallen mount and a barking dog. The caption beneath the scene, reading The Overthrow of Dr. Slop, names the episode.
