介绍（中）	这场轻松的海军胜利将威尔士亲王乔治塑造成一个被快乐分心的海怪。1812年1月，王子正式成为摄政王，克鲁克申克强调他肉体上的放纵和对情妇和奉承者的软弱。当他成为摄政王时，王子保留了保守党的Spencer Perceval担任首席部长，这让他以前的辉格党朋友们大吃一惊。佩西瓦尔是这一头衔的渔夫，他站在一艘小船上，用金链子牢牢地固定着他的战利品，同时被"爱的露水"淋得浑身湿透。左边心怀不满的辉格党人只得到了"遗忘的酒"。显然，摄政王对政治感到厌倦，他看到了一条丰满的美人鱼，他最近的情妇，赫特福德侯爵夫人伊莎贝拉。他忽略了她怒目而视的人鱼丈夫和第二条人鱼，他的前情妇玛丽亚·费泽伯特。背景柱廊代表了王子位于Pall Mall的宫殿式住宅Carlton House。
介绍（英）	This light-hearted marine triumph casts George, Prince of Wales as a sea monster distracted by pleasure. In January 1812 the prince had officially become Regent and Cruikshank emphasizes his fleshly self-indulgence and weakness for mistresses and flatterers. When he became Regent, the prince surprised his former Whig friends by retaining the Tory Spencer Perceval as chief minister. Perceval, the fisherman of the title, stands in a small boat holding his prize fast on a golden chain while being showered by the "Dew of Favor." The disgruntled Whigs at left receive only "the Liquor of Oblivion." Clearly bored with politics, the Regent eyes a buxom mermaid, his most recent mistress Isabella, Marchioness of Hertford. He ignores both her scowling merman husband, and a second mermaid, his former mistress Maria Fitzherbert. The background colonnade represents Carlton House, the prince’s palatial home on Pall Mall.
