About this work
A caricature in brown ink shows a large anthropomorphic bear facing a human figure in a plumed hat, holding a shield inscribed with names, while a second figure stands between them with a sword and a speech bubble. A crowd of spectators fills the background beside a street lined with buildings and a sign reading Moor Fields. The work is a print by Thomas Rowlandson, dated 1801, and its caption reads Single Combat in Moor-Fields or Magnanimous Paul O' challenging All O'.
